are you designing the UI for every service by hand, or doing it programmatically somehow?

Thankfully programmatic. It’s a common UI table widget, essentially, and I’ve written some custom code to handle multi-region support, updating the AWS credential handler, pagination, and response processing. From there, it’s a matter of plugging in some common options for each AWS service: the service name, SDK method to call, pagination property (annoyingly, AWS API has numerous ways of paginating responses), etc. Takes about five minutes to add a new service.

I'm using ag-grid for my project too. I did a bunch of work to make configuring it more declarative... so you can have pinned rows that read from a different data source for summary stats, so you can specify custom renderers for each column. how have you found ag-grid to use?

Oh, that's neat! I've found it to be really flexible, although some of the really nice features are (understandably) locked behind the expensive "Pro" version (like right-click context menus, etc.). Will check out your examples!
