What exactly is serverless? AWS serverless technologies allow developers to run code, manage data, and integrate applications without managing any servers. In practice, this means you can learn and build serverless applications quickly.

In this coding session, Eric will open the IDE and show you how to build a serverless application. He will demonstrate how to create a simple, data-driven backend designed to scale on demand. Eric will also show how to host a client with serverless that connects to the backend. Along the way, he will discuss best practices for local development and security.

At the end of this session, you will be ready to start building your applications using a serverless approach.
