LocalStack announced immediate support for AWS Lambda Web Functions on the same day AWS released the feature. The local cloud sandbox lets developers and AI agents test concurrent serverless HTTP workloads without deploying to cloud infrastructure. For teams where provisioning friction slows delivery, this kind of Day-1 parity has real operational value.
