Creating Amazon ECS resources using the AWS Copilot command line interface

The AWS Copilot command line interface (CLI) commands simplify building, releasing, and operating production-ready containerized applications on Amazon ECS from a local development environment. The AWS Copilot CLI aligns with developer workflows that support modern application best practices: from using infrastructure as code to creating a CI/CD pipeline provisioned on behalf of a user. Use the AWS Copilot CLI as part of your everyday development and testing cycle as an alternative to the AWS Management Console.

AWS Copilot currently supports Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. For more information about the latest version of the AWS Copilot CLI, see Releases.

Note
