AWS Portfolio Project: Build an End-to-End Web Application with 7 Services | Step-by-Step Tutorial

UPDATED video available here that uses GitHub (rather than CodeCommit), Amplify Gen 2, and Node.js 20.x. Check it out!    • UPDATED - AWS Project - Build a Full End-t...   When you're new to AWS, it can be difficult to wrap your head around ALL the services available, and how they actually fit together to build a working application. Or maybe you're just looking for a more robust project you can put on your resume? Well, you've come to the right place! That's what we're tackling in this video! (I also have another AWS project video that you might enjoy here:    • AWS Project: Architect and Build an End-to...  .) In this hands-on tutorial, I'll walk you through how to build a ride sharing app (for unicorns!), pulling from the AWS Wild Rydes sample project. We'll use seven different services-CodeCommit, Amplify, Cognito, Lambda, IAM, API Gateway and DynamoDB-talking about why/where to use them, and how to get them to work with each other. As we go, we'll build out each of the services, resulting in a fully-functioning ride sharing application when we're done. 🤓 To follow along, you'll need: • A text editor or place to make notes • An AWS account and access to the Console (video here if you need help:    • Video  ) • Some basic knowledge of AWS is preferable, but you can still follow along if you're an absolute newbie • An ArcGIS account for mapping functionality (free and easy to create at arcgis.com) 🤓 Here's all the code you'll need to build the application: • **IMPORTANT**: AWS has deleted/locked down their S3 bucket where the code lived. At 11:16, use this command instead (copies from my own S3 bucket): aws s3 cp s3://ttt-wildrydes/wildrydes-site ./ --recursive • Lambda function and test event code: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1M... 🤓 Here are some other videos for services referenced in the video: • Amplify:    • AWS Amplify (Gen 1) in Plain English | Get...   • Lambda:    • Create Your First AWS Lambda Function | AW...   • DynamoDB:    • Amazon/AWS DynamoDB Tutorial for Beginners...   • IAM:    • AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) B...   • API Gateway:    • Create a REST API with API Gateway and Lam...   🌟🌟If you're interested in getting AWS certifications, check out these full courses.
