## What it is
SST is a framework for building and deploying modern full-stack applications on your own cloud infrastructure, with the entire app defined in a single sst.config.ts file using 150+ provider components. It includes a CLI, dev mode with live Lambda debugging, a web console, and first-class support for frameworks like Next.js, Remix, and Astro on AWS.

## Use cases
- deploy a next.js app to aws
- define my whole app infrastructure in typescript
- set up serverless api with lambda and api gateway
- provision postgres database and s3 bucket from code
- local dev environment for serverless apps
- deploy full-stack app on my own aws account
- manage stripe products and webhooks in code
- deploy containers and cron jobs alongside frontend

## When to choose
- you want infrastructure defined in TypeScript instead of YAML or HCL
- you deploy Next.js, Remix, or Astro apps to AWS
- you want a fast local dev loop for serverless functions
- you want frontend, backend, and resources linked and deployed from one config
- you prefer owning your AWS infrastructure over managed platforms like Vercel

## When to avoid
- you want a fully managed platform with zero infrastructure control
- your stack targets providers SST does not support
- you need multi-cloud orchestration beyond SST's component model
- your team is heavily invested in Terraform or Pulumi workflows
