AWS offers many tools for developers, but it can sometimes be hard to know where to start. So many “Code” and “Cloud” things! Well, not to worry. In this video, I’ll explain in plain English what they’re all used for, and then we’ll see some of them in action.
In the hands-on tutorial, we’ll create a new AWS CodeStar project, using a template for Python with a Lambda function. Then we’ll set up the Cloud9 IDE where we write code. We’ll also take a lap around the CodeStar tabs, looking at CodeCommit, CodePipeline and CloudFormation.
Next, we’ll make a change to our code in Cloud9, staging the change and then ultimately committing it using git push. That will kick off Code Pipeline to build and deploy the changes, which we’ll then view in the browser.
Finally—and IMPORTANTLY!—I’ll walk you through how to delete all the resources we created in the video.
