Summary

Audits doc-site backlinks to the localstack/localstack repo and redirects/removes those that send customers to closed issues or the repo's issue tracker (which changed following the license change).

Fixed in this PR

  • ~16 "open an issue" / feature-request CTAs (issues/new, issues/new/choose) → now point to GitHub Discussions (https://github.com/orgs/localstack/discussions), sentences left intact.
  • Specific closed issue/PR backlinks removed/unlinked: aws-replicator (#12439), dynamodb (#7405), pulumi (#11523), multi-account-setups (#7041), hot-reloading (#11415), configuration (pull/11960).
  • Repo-root links dropped in aws-cdk and vscode-extension.

Scope notes

  • Only the exact localstack/localstack repo was targeted. Other org repos (localstack-samples, localstack-pro-samples, localstack-cli, localstack-extensions, localstack-azure-samples, etc.) are separate and still valid — left untouched.
  • Redirect files were intentionally not modified.

Deferred to a follow-up PR

These are live, working resources (not closed issues), so they were left as-is pending a decision on whether to relocate them:

Releases / version tags

  • changelog.md:67releases/tag/v2.0.0
  • changelog.md:68releases/tag/v1.4.0
  • snowflake/getting-started/index.mdx:38/releases
  • arm64-support.md:8releases/tag/v0.13.0

File / source refs

  • installation.mdx:388docker-compose-pro.yml
  • installation.mdx:458docker-compose-pro.yml
  • faq.mdx:228docker-compose-pro.yml
  • lambda.mdx:690docker-compose.yml
  • developing-extensions.mdx:18tree/.../extensions/api (source pointer)

CONTRIBUTING.md redirects:

  • public/_redirects:169, public/_redirects:576, scripts/redirects/_redirects:167, scripts/redirects/redirects_config.json:829

Linear: DOC-258

…s (DOC-258)

Audit of doc-site backlinks to the localstack/localstack repo. Closed
issue/PR backlinks and 'open an issue' CTAs now point to GitHub
Discussions instead of the repo, so we no longer direct customers there.

- Replace ~16 'report a bug / feature request' CTAs (issues/new) with
  https://github.com/orgs/localstack/discussions
- Remove/unlink specific closed issue & PR backlinks across aws-replicator,
  dynamodb, pipes, pulumi, multi-account, configuration, hot-reloading
- Drop repo-root links in aws-cdk and vscode-extension

The lambda changes look good to me! I skimmed over the rest, it looks good as well from what I can see :)
