Use Cognito locally [offline]

The AWS SDK doesn't include a local plugin for using Cognito User Pools at this time, however we have heard this request from other customers and will consider it in future releases.


Recently localstack released a pro version that actually allows to run the cognito locally. It also has several other services that normally are used with cognito so this is the perfect solution for me.

Also there is an open source contributor created node package/docker image emulating some parts of Cognito, but not all.

Haven't used it personally, but looking forward to it.
