Update

As of recently, this initial offering is also fully integrated in the AWS Toolkit for Eclipse and the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio, see the following introductory blog posts:

Please note that you will likely install one of the AWS SDKs (e.g. the AWS SDK for Java or the AWS SDK for .NET) on your local development system though, if you are planning to work with DynamoDB, they offer various other Developer Tools as well.
