Build a ride sharing app (for unicorns!), pulling from the AWS Wild Rydes sample project. I used seven different AWS services: CodeCommit, Amplify, Cognito, Lambda, IAM, API Gateway and DynamoDB.
WILDRYDES is basically an Uber oryt except for unicorns, with some good static content, incorporate user registration and and log in and be able to be able to work with some map functionality, so that if we were in Seattle let's say we could request a unicorn just by clicking on the map we'll request unicorn.
It's really a great app for tying together a bunch of different services in AWS and you'll actually have a working application when you're done that you could share with friends or family.
Features:
- Store/update/pull code
- Handle permissions for code
- Host website and make updates
- Users to register and log in
- Do ride sharing functionality
- Somewhere to store/return ride results
- Invoke ride sharing functionality
This is an AWS sample project, all of the code is available for download.
Command to copy code from AWSโs S3 bucket (from CloudShell command line):
aws s3 cp s3://wildrydes-[your_region_name, like us-west-2]/WebApplication/1_StaticWebHosting/website ./ --recursive
All services used are eligible for the AWS Free Tier. However, charges will incur at some point so it's recommended that you shut down resources after completing this tutorial.
