Contributing to aws-beam/aws-elixir
Given @benwilson512’s comment:
The most productive thing to do for the ecosystem may be to take a look at the packages that depend on ex_aws and see if they’ll accept a pull request to instead use https://github.com/aws-beam/aws-elixir which appears to be actively maintained, and uses code generation to keep up with changes coming from AWS.

That’s a great idea @mbuhot!
I have started looking at aws-beam and what it would be necessary for me personally to migrate to it and I have found some action items:
- Migrate from poiston to jason
- Make the HTTP client pluggable (similar to what is done in ExAWS)
I was planning to send a PR for those but I decided to post them there as folks are looking for ways to contribute. It is probably worth checking out with the maintainer too if they welcome these changes before moving forward.

As most Elixir projects, the docs are on hexdocs: aws-elixir v1.0.13 — Documentation - The README could make it clearer though, probably a good opportunity for a first PR. Go for it! 
Given it is auto-generated, I don’t see an issue with generating both. Especially because Erlang developers do not want to bring Elixir as a dependency and Elixir developers don’t want to lose the nicely generated ExDoc documentation we have today.
