I'm surprised they are investing into this. I checked Phoenix recently because I was interested in LiveView and there isn't even an official AWS SDK for Elixir.

Honestly doubt the AI stuff is going to move the needle much if you can't even have a dependable S3 client.

Considering the horror the official AWS CLI is this seems like a strange example. I’ve used both the non official libraries and they work fine. The one that is auto generated doesn’t feel very Elixir, but that’s to be expected.

Maybe fine today but what about 5 years from now?

Can you say, with any degree of confidence, if these these libraries are going to be properly maintained in the future? No, you cannot.

Goes for every library out there though. Official or not.

Not really. You can be much more confident the official AWS SDK will be available 5 or even 10 years from now.
