       | use, and I was right. Don't get me wrong it's a valiant effort
       | and it lets us run tests much faster (and obviously cheaper) than
       | the real thing, but those same tests need to pass on live AWS too
       | before we have any confidence in our code.

       | If any of the localstack authors are reading this, thank you for
       | your tireless efforts!

       | Is there something like this but for azure?

         | Quick edit: there is a cosmosdb emulator out there for windows.
         | Last I looked (6 months ago?) there was not a Linux version (so
         | no docker). If you're in windows with wsl though not bad. Azure

         | While I admire their effort to do all the clouds, I would
         | expect the actual code overlap between emulating the AWS APIs
         | and Azure APIs would be infinitesimal and would likely benefit
         | from a separate localstack-azure project
         | 
         | Or, actually, put another way: since localstack stood on the
         | shoulders of the absolutely incredible moto library, I would
         | find out if there is an equivalent for Azure and start there
