CLI UX relies on the small details that can make a difference. Here are two improvements I contributed to the @localstack.cloud CLI recently:
› version option accurately shows CLI version (available)
› start command includes web app URL (coming soon)

Can't wait to share more about form and function in product design with the team in the next days.
It matters more than I'm giving credit for. That's why I'm advising companies to bring a cloud like experience to the local laptop. That could mean cloud hosted control planes, with the data plane running locally. It can be the best of both worlds. Docker Desktop is attempting to do this.
