#aws

This workshop enables you to learn how to develop React applications, and then deploy them to the cloud (or building them to the console) coupled with a backend, fully abstracted, with no complex backend configuration, simplifying the building and deployment of frontend & web apps to the cloud.

In this workshop, we will go over how to build a knowledge base using Gatsby, a static site generator Framework that uses React and graphQL, Contentful, a Headless CMS to drive the content and deploy it to AWS S3.

This workshop teaches you the basics of serverless application development with TypeScript. We'll start with a simple Lambda function, set up the project and the infrastructure-as-a-code (AWS CDK), and learn how to organize, test, and debug a more complex serverless application.
