Agreed. It’s also great for things like “zip up all the files in this folder, upload the zip file to s3, and output a progress bar while uploading”. It’s not difficult in an architectural or algorithmic sense, but it takes time to refresh on the APIs, find a progress bar library, and how do presigned s3 posts work again? And you can make little mistakes, forget error handling, etc. You could easily spend an hour or more on something like this, especially if you haven’t done it before in x language.
