Discussion on: What AWS service are you struggling to learn? What’s painful?

So, first thing: please add support for .net core on Linux for Elastic Beanstalk. I really like being able to manage most of my application through Elastic Beanstalk and get load balancers setup the way I want, though I don't like for .Net Core always having to use Windows. Sure I can go and setup everything from scratch, but it would be nice to see that I can use it also, since you support it on Windows.

The next thing is just the whole UX/UI. It feels disconnected. The feel/flow of the UI for one service doesn't at all flow the same way for different UI's.
Example: sometimes the steppers for some resources support the back button. You can click and it takes you back to previous step. Then there are times where the steppers or even different tabs do not support the back button. Click the back button and it just flat out EXITS you to a completely different UI. No warning at all. That's the thing that really frustrates me the most.

I understand that it is impossible for a platform as large as AWS to have a consistent UI all the time for services, as things change and you can't change them all at once. Though the biggest thing I ask for, is if one UI supports the back button then the rest of your UIs should also.

Thank you for explaining in such detail what you think would make it a better experience for you! I will be passing this on to the Elastic Beanstalk team.

I actually did not. I must have missed that announcement. Thanks for bringing it up! I'll definitely have to check this out soon!
