Community notes intended to supplement Tomasz's Build an App with the AWS Cloud Development Kit course
This repo contains notes from Tomasz Łakomy's Egghead course Build an App with the AWS Cloud Development Kit.
These notes contain the same structure as the transcriptions, along with additional rewrites, links to resources, and personal takes on the lesson. Feel free to submit additions to these notes, but please don't remove anything (unless we messed up or misunderstood something).
Generally, there is one document for each lesson in the course. If there are related lessons, the notes will be in the same document.
You've probably already heard of cloud computing, aws
, lambda
functions, s3
buckets, but maybe have no idea what those things are. Good news! This course serve as an introduction to all of these things and more!
You'll learn how to deploy a cdk
template, write your first lambda
function, initialize a new s3
bucket to store your assets, save things in a NoSQL database called dynamoDB
, connect a react
application to your backend and deploy all of it to a CDN!
By the end of the course you'll not only have a good understanding of (some of) aws
features, you'll also have a working application deployed live on the internet.
After completing the course and absorbing all of this knowledge, the best way to solidify it is by using it!
You can find a challenge written up for you to test your new AWS knowledge in the Course Project folder. We've given you a scenario for you to implement a feature through AWS services.
You'll notice that there is a community solutions folder within the Course Project section. We encourage you to submit a PR and add your solution!
During this course we're going to talk quite a bit about AWS Lambda, DynamoDB and we're going to play with AWS SAM a bit. This is not required but I think you will get more out of the course if you take a look at those resources first (don't worry - I will be explaining those concepts during the course as well):
