    It’s mind boggling that having an easy to use local environment wasn’t the first thing cloud providers did

      As someone who’s worked a lot with Azure Functions, the experience for me in Visual Studio has always been:

      • Create C# function app
      • Write the code
      • Hit F5

      The Functions runtime can be ran locally as a standalone as well, and I was able to get Rust function apps working locally using a custom handler. There’s also a vscode plugin to run them.

      Things might be different for Lambdas/GCP’s Functions?

      Not mine boggling imo when you think of it from the angle of “then they’ll have to spend more money!”

      Otoh I had an argument with an AWS rep who just didn’t understand why I wanted an isolated local dev environment.
