       | CLI53 is great, an important part of my toolkit. I mostly make
       | DNS changes manually through the console, because it's the
       | easiest way to lookup LBs and cloudfront entries, but I then
       | export to zone files and commit them to version control. It's an
       | easy dev experience.

       | I will say they need to do a new official release - Compiled from
       | source, it supports AWS SSO, but the released binaries don't.

         | flip providers.

       | AWS' Route 53 API is awful. I wrote a Python CLI app around it
       | that is very intuitive for simple DNS tasks like managing RR's
       | and scheduling with cron to DIY dynamic DNS:
