Building DynoWizard [1] - tool for designing single table DynamoDB tables.

I first used DynamoDB 8 years ago and have been designing single-table schemas heavily since. For me, the best way to create drafts was always pen and paper (and then excel/confluence tables), but in reality it's a process (based on The DynamoDB Book) that can be automated to an extent.

Decided to build an app while on paternity leave. You define entities and access patterns, create (or get suggested) key and GSI design, and generate code for access patterns (TypeScript and Python), infrastructure (CDK, CloudFormation, Terraform), and documentation you can share with stakeholders.

There's more I want to build beyond the MVP - things around understanding and validating designs that you can't get from a chatbot - but for now focusing on the core.

If anyone wants to try it out, sign up for the waitlist on the landing page. MVP should be ready in the next few weeks.
