LocalStack is a cloud service emulator that runs in a single container on your laptop or in your CI environment. With LocalStack, you can run your AWS applications or Lambdas entirely on your local machine without connecting to a remote cloud provider
AWS cli environments variables

SPA app + API gateway + lambda function
To host a SPA (Single Page Application) in LocalStack that uses API Gateway, we must simulate the AWS environment where Amazon S3 acts as a static file web server and API Gateway acts as the backend calling lambda functions.
Localstack complete flow:
- The user goes to S3 URL in the browser
The browser downloads index.html and the SPA JavaScript from S3 (LocalStack).
The SPA makes a POST call to an API Gateway endpoint (LocalStack).
- API Gateway triggers a Lambda Java (that makes the sent string uppercase).
- Lambda returns a JSON and the SPA updates its screen with the JSON data
