AWS Launches Blocks, an Open-Source TypeScript Framework Designed for AI Agents to Build Backends

AWS released Blocks in public preview, an open-source TypeScript framework where each Block bundles application code, local mocks, and AWS infrastructure. Designed for AI agents to write correct backends from the start, it runs locally without an AWS account and deploys the same code to Lambda, DynamoDB, Aurora, and Bedrock with zero changes.
