By providing application requirements to the AI, the tool automatically generates AWS CDK or Terraform code combining appropriate infrastructure and services, as well as the basic application code known as a "scaffold," within a few minutes.
Once generated, the code can be freely edited and used without further dependence on the tool. Additionally, it is compatible with "Nx," a monorepo management tool used to manage system code in a single repository. According to AWS Labs documentation, an MCP server for the plugin is configured in the workspace, allowing an assistant to execute the appropriate generators to leave behind infrastructure for deployment and code based on best practices.
