I am currently going through an AWS Developer Associate course on Udemy. I find it hard to retain knowledge if I don’t have practical application. This project is a way for me to apply the skills I’ve learned!
The inspiration of this project came from myself losing items all the time. I spend a lot of time driving to different locations trying to find items I have lost, I have always wanted to just be able to go online and see all the lost items at a venue.
I wanted to be able to use as many AWS products I could. Although this may not be the most optimal set up considering vendor lock in, I just want to be able to show that I can integrate AWS with applications that I can make.
Step 1: CICD
One thing a lot of Solo Developers don’t think to do until the end is setting up a proper pipeline for development, I wanted to be able to create this first. Although I want to focus on AWS cloud, I used GitHub Actions because it is more agnostic and a wider array of companies use it over its AWS alternatives. Also it is free!
