AWS & Typescript Masterclass – CDK, Serverless, React | Udemy

AWS and Typescript are 2 of the most demanded technologies in today’s IT market. AWS Cloud Development Kit – CDK brings a great new development experience.

Now you can use your preferred programming language for your business logic, cloud infrastructure, but also for the UI, with React.

Now you can build serverless applications much easier!

This AWS & Typescript Masterclass course is what you need to build your apps like a pro, learning from an programming active instructor!

What you can expect from this course:

• In depth coverage of AWS Cloud Development Kit – CDK
  • Setup
  • CDK constructs
  • CDK versions
  • Deploying and managing CDK apps
  • Best practices with CDK
• Infrastructure as code with AWS Cloud Formation
  • Console view
  • Cloud Formation Deployment stages
  • Resources management
  • Cloud Formation Outputs
  • Cloud Formation Parameters
• Build highly scalable and cost efficient apps with the serverless architecture
• Serverless computing services
• AWS Lambda:
  • Write, test, bundle, deploy, configure
  • Use the best practices
  • Go deep into advanced techniques with Lambda and CDK
  • Use Typescript and the NodeJS as environment for Lambda
• AWS DynamoDB:
  • Basics and console access
  • DynamoDB queries
  • DynamoDB sdk (TypeScript) calls from AWS Lambda
  • CDK generic constructs with DynamoDB, ApiGateway and Lambda
• AWS Cognito:
  • User pools
  • Identity pools
  • Console access
  • IAM role management inside Cognito
  • Cognito groups for fine grained access control
• AWS S3 for file storage
• Build a monitoring stack with CDK  – CloudWatch alarm, SNS topic and Web-hook lambda – Slack channel
• AWS CloudWatch X-RAY
• CDK testing with Jest:
  • Declarative tests
  • CDK test matchers
  • captors
• CI/CD with CodePipeline:
  • CDK stages, test and deployment to production

Another important point of this course is the Typescript programming language. It is fast, flexible, powerful and easy to learn.

Typescript takes the flexibility of JavaScript and the programming principles of C# and delivers a great coding experience.

This course uses Typescript for:

• Cloud infrastructure with AWS CDK
• Business logic with AWS Lambda
• Web application UI with React

We finally can write all our app in one language, no more JSON, or YAML, or strange scripts, just Typescript, your favorite language!

Why this course stands out from other Udemy courses:

• Beyond the basics – after finish, you can directly use this knowledge into production code
• Practical knowledge – presentations are kept to a minimum, we focus on what is really important
• Logical and flexible structure – take the course at your own pace
• Fast paced, concise, most typing cut out – focus on explanations – respect for your time
• Code changes in each lecture on Git with code diffs
• Big font, dark background, fullHD content, this way it is readable even on a small screen or even tablet.
• Lifetime access
• Certificate of completion to present to your current or prospective employer
• Q&A active instructor

Instructor:

My name is Alex Horea, I’m an active senior web and Cloud developer and I want to pass you the knowledge I wish I had when I was a beginner. I strongly believe that practice is the best way to learn, and in this course we will be practicing TypeScript in 4 ways:

• As cloud infrastructure with CDK
• Business logic with AWS Lambda
• UI with React
• Cloud helper topics like monitoring, testing and CI/CD, with CDK

Go beyond the theory and learn from an active instructor, aligned with today’s programming demands!
