Yes, **AWS Application Composer** (often called AWS Infrastructure Composer) is **100% free to use**.
AWS does not charge you anything to open the canvas, drag and drop components, or generate your Infrastructure as Code (IaC) templates. You can use it both in the AWS Management Console or as an extension inside **VS Code** at no cost.
### The Only Catch: Resource Deployment
While using the tool to design and write code is completely free, if you choose to actually **deploy** the architecture you created into your AWS account, you will pay standard AWS pricing for the underlying resources you provision (e.g., if you spin up an Amazon RDS database or live EC2 instances, you will be billed for those based on their usage or runtime).
If you are just using it as a whiteboard to design your system and study its layout, it won't cost you a dime.
