The AWS Copilot core team is announcing the Copilot v1.25 release. Our public сommunity сhat is growing and has almost 400 people online and over 2.6k stars on GitHub. Thanks to every one of you who shows love and support for AWS Copilot.

The AWS Copilot CLI is a tool for developers to build, release, and operate production ready containerized applications on AWS. From getting started, pushing to staging, and releasing to production, Copilot can help manage the entire lifecycle of your application development. At the foundation of Copilot is AWS CloudFormation, which enables you to provision infrastructure as code. Copilot provides pre-defined CloudFormation templates and user-friendly workflows for different types of micro service architectures, enabling you to focus on developing your application, instead of writing deployment scripts.

Addons are additional AWS resources that are not integrated in Copilot by default - for example, DynamoDB, RDS, etc. Environment addons are additional resources managed on the environment level. Their lifecycle will be tied to your environment: you will run copilot env deploy to create or update your environment addons; when you run copilot env delete against an environment, Copilot will try to delete its addons as well.
