AWS MCP and Cursor IDE Together Make AWS Simple!

#aws #cloud #serverless #awscommunity

In 8 minutes you’ll see:
• What MCP is in plain terms
• How to hook AWS MCP into Cursor IDE in 2 steps
• Side-by-side code before VS after MCP
• Bonus: AWS Cost Estimation using AI and AWS MCP

If you use AWS, this is worth a quick watch.
