jungle makes AWS operations from terminal simpler and more intuitive.
awscli is by far the most comprehensive CLI tool manipulating various AWS services, and I really like its flexible options and up-to-date release cycle. However, day-to-day AWS operations from my terminal don't need that much flexibility and that many services. Rather, I wanted just small set of UNIX-like commands which are easy to use and remember.
pip install jungle

You can create the credential file yourself. By default, its location is at ~/.aws/credentials
[default]
aws_access_key_id = YOUR_ACCESS_KEY
aws_secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET_KEY
You may also want to set a default region. This can be done in the configuration file. By default, its location is at ~/.aws/config
[default]
region = us-east-1
More detailed configurations can be found in the boto3 documentation.
