Build a fully managed, serverless GraphQL API powered by TypeScript and AWS CDK in a matter of hours, not days.

AWS CDK gives us the power to go all-in with infrastructure as code for AWS. With it, we can create a full GraphQL API with AppSync, a database with DynamoDB, serverless functions with Lambda, and much more.

In this course, you will learn how to do all of the above from your command line and code editor, which will save you time and give you greater flexibility.

Want to delete your stack? That's fine, just run cdk destroy and poof, all of the resources are gone. Changed your mind? Just deploy the stack again and they all come back.

AWS CDK makes it that easy.

And since we are working from the command line and our code editor, we will take advantage of TypeScript and other third-party libraries to improve our developer experience.

So stop wasting time in the AWS console, check out this course, and learn how to leverage infrastructure as code to your advantage.
