Awesome Smithy is a curated list of awesome build-tools, code-generators, examples, and other resources related to the Smithy IDL.

If you want your component to appear here, send a pull request to this repository to add it (see the contribution guidelines for more information).

The Smithy team cannot vouch for the stability or production-worthiness an item on this list unless it has the icon <img src="/assets/smithy-anvil.svg" alt="(official)" title="Smithy Official" height="10px"> next to it. This icon means the component is an official project supported by the Smithy team. Official Smithy team projects with the 🚧 icon next to them are still a work-in-progress and are not production-ready.
