Serverless Stack framework is not bread and butter as they describe it, it often locks up and CPU going to 100% on my machine, misses debug breakpoints, breaks with weird error messages pointing to compiled JS code that are hard to trace back to TypeScript, etc, etc. And you are right, you are locked in, there is too much magic, you are dependent on internet connection.
Maybe I just inherited shitty serverless project, but it is painful.
Sorry to hear that you've had some bad experiences with SST. Recently we shipped some updates to fix the CPU issues with apps that have a large number of functions. The missing breakpoints I think is related as well.
That said though, we often work with teams in our Slack to get their setup working well. If you haven't, I'd recommend popping in and posting about it. Or just send me an email: jay@serverless-stack.com and we'll figure it out.
