• trunk only / main only CI/CD
• ...(TBD)

I will ... workshop a GIT-repository with all intermediate steps and a deployable application.

You will need a developer laptop with Java 21 pre-installed, as AWS Lambda currently only runs on Corretto 21. To run the examples, you will also need a Git client, the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), and Maven 3. You can either run the examples or 'hack' along with me — it's also a good idea to take notes! Most students prefer to take notes — you will receive the source code anyway.

I will use my AWS account to live deploy the applications and explain various AWS services.

Environment requirements / prerequisites.

I/we will spend 80% of the time in code--it also highly depends on your questions.
