JAWS comes with a `front` folder, but doesn't do much with it (yet). In the future, JAWS will provide more automation for front-end development. -JAWS relies heavily on AWS Cloudformation to keep track of all of the AWS resources your application requires in each stage/region. This way, you can easily provision/replicate your AWS resources at once, and roll back to previous deployments, for every stage/region your application uses. +JAWS applications' back-end runs on AWS Lambda functions which can be seen in the `back` folder. To encourage the development of re-usable, standardized and optimized lambda functions, JAWS keeps all of your app's lambda functions in the **[AWS-Module](https://github.com/awsm-org/awsm) (awsm)** format. This format was created for JAWS, and the JAWS CLI features commands to help you generate scaffolding for your aws_modules. -JAWS applications' back-end runs on AWS Lambda functions which can be seen in the `back` folder.

JAWS replicates your application across each stage/region using CloudFormation as in the diagram below: +Every JAWS application can have multiple stages and multiple regions within each stage.
