Building larger serverless applications can be tricky - creating many lambda functions as well as other resources such as DynamoDB tables, S3 buckets, API Gateways using AWS Console takes quite a lot of time. Not to mention other problems such as redeploying the app to a different region, reviewing the infrastructure etc.
AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM for short) simplifies a lot of those issues 🤩
Built with with best practices in mind, SAM allows you to:
🌟define your infrastructure as code using a YAML template (which can go through code review!)
🌟define resources such as lambda functions, DynamoDB tables etc. in a much simpler way than doing it directly in CloudFormation (which SAM is built on top of)
🌟build and deploy a serverless application from a command line
🌟debug and test lambda functions locally using SAM CLI
🌟debug and test lambda functions from WITHIN your editor with AWS Toolkit extension
Add AWS SAM to your toolkit with this quick collection!

Become familiar with the Workers CLI wrangler
that we will use to bootstrap our Worker project. From there you'll understand how a Worker receives and returns requests/Responses. We will also build this serverless function locally for development and deploy it to a custom domain.
This is a practical project based look at building a working e-commerce store using modern tools and APIs. Excellent for a weekend side-project for your developer project portfolio
git is a critical component in the modern web developers tool box. This course is a solid introduction and goes beyond the basics with some more advanced git commands you are sure to find useful.
