Infrastructure as Code (short IaC) is a powerful method to create and maintain you deployments. AWS CDK is a very famous way of defining your deployment with IaC. AWS CDK synthesize to AWS Cloudformation which looks back on many years of use in divers productions. So yes AWS CDK is production ready!

In this course you are learning about the basics of AWS CDK which is an open source framework to generate Cloudformation templates out of code written in languages like Java, JavaScript, TypeScript or Python. CDK uses Constructs to describe one or more Cloudformation resources.

After that we build a Todolist platform consisting of a frontend React TS App hosted in an S3 Bucket and a backend with AppSync, Cognito and DynamoDB. Frontend and Backend are supported by a deployment pipeline. Each new commit triggers a new run of the AWS CodePipeline frontend or backend pipeline.

For setting up the projects and maintaining them we are using Projen which is a very helpful templating tool with a lot of useful tools for working with AWS CDK.

So lets join me in having a very nice DevOps like experience with AWS CDK and Projen.
