I'm biased but for local development, I prefer to emulate the least amount of AWS services. You don't have to deal with any gotchas while going to prod.

Some background, with SST we connect your local environment to the services deployed to AWS and just run the Lambda functions locally: https://docs.sst.dev/live-lambda-development

SST has been a breath of fresh air. Very excellent devex for companies using serverless.
