The Amazon Copilot command line interface (CLI) commands simplify building, releasing, and operating production-ready containerized applications on Amazon ECS from a local development environment. The Amazon Copilot CLI aligns with developer workflows that support modern application best practices: from using infrastructure as code to creating a CI/CD pipeline provisioned on behalf of a user. Use the Amazon Copilot CLI as part of your everyday development and testing cycle as an alternative to the Amazon Web Services Management Console.

Amazon Copilot currently supports Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. For more information about the latest version of the Amazon Copilot CLI, see [Releases](https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli/releases).
