AWS CDK Dockerized Environment Template

This is a template for a dockerized environment for CDK projects (typescript)

The main benefits are:

• no need to install much thing on your machine
• good for big team with new joiners for a fast start (you only have to share the info to connect to aws, like your sso endpoint and region, or aws access keys)
• can allow you to setup quick poc running in cloud without thinking much about initial setup

Requirements

• docker
• docker compose
• make
• bash
