We explore how the SDKs scale to support over 320+ AWS services, the importance of maintaining backward compatibility, and the role of developer experience in shaping the SDK design. Trevor explains how the team uses Smithy to automate code generation, ensuring consistency and efficiency across different programming languages. The conversation touches on the growing adoption of modular architecture, community contributions via GitHub, and the team's efforts to improve performance, define better schemas, and simplify migrations.
