Haven't run the accelerator but does Localstack provide a UI in the free version?

Maybe use Redis here instead of Google Bigtable? I get the sentiment but Bigtable isn't cloud agnostic (GCP only).

Should we just remove this assuming that the user doesn't have a paid account?

I'll give it a tick, but we might want to think about removing or reframing this accelerator, because it basically shows you how to build a basic version of the Signals profile store. We should either be directing people to use Signals instead, or use this as a way to illustrate how much work this is to do yourself vs. using Signals.
