Show HN: Open-source deployment tool for AWS Lambda

LaunchFlow provides a streamlined process for deploying serverless APIs on AWS Lambda. To get started, users need to create a new directory for their project and set up a basic Lambda function in a file named app.py. The next step involves installing the LaunchFlow Python SDK and CLI using pip, followed by initializing LaunchFlow in the project directory. Users will then configure their project by selecting AWS as the cloud provider and Lambda as the service, which generates an infra.py file for deployment. After ensuring local AWS credentials are set up, users can deploy their service, name their environment, and confirm the resources to be created. Once the deployment is complete, a link to the deployed service on Lambda will be provided. For resource management, users can clean up by deleting all resources and environments if needed. Additionally, LaunchFlow Cloud offers a collaborative platform for managing and automating infrastructure, which is free for small teams. Users can connect their local environment to LaunchFlow Cloud for enhanced collaboration and automation capabilities.
