About
In this series, you'll learn about important concepts relating to development on AWS. We'll explore various AWS services and build systems that leverage each one. This series will be interactive and based on what you are seeking to learn, so please come prepared to share ideas! No prior knowledge of cloud computing and/or AWS is required.
Please note that while anyone is welcome to join this series, it's useful to have an AWS account to get the most out of it. The examples we will cover will operate within the free tier.
