This is the code repository for Rapid Application Development with AWS Amplify, published by Packt.

Build cloud-native mobile and web apps from scratch through continuous delivery and test automation

AWS Amplify is a modern toolkit that includes a command line interface (CLI); libraries for JS, iOS, and Android programming; UI component libraries for frameworks like React, Angular, and Vue.js for web development, and React Native and Flutter for mobile development.

This book covers the following exciting features:

• Build React and React Native apps with Amplify and TypeScript

All of the code is organized into folders. For example, Chapter02.

The code will look like the following:

function setInput(key, value) {
setFormState({ ...formState, [key]: value })
}
async function fetchTodos() {
try {
const todoData = await
API.graphql(graphqlOperation(listTodos))
const todos = todoData.data.listTodos.items
setTodos(todos)
} catch (err) { console.log('error fetching todos') }
}

Following is what you need for this book:

This book is for developers and tech companies looking to develop cloud-native products rapidly with the AWS ecosystem. Web and mobile developers with little-to-no experience in TypeScript programming will also find this book helpful. Although no prior experience with AWS or TypeScript is required, basic familiarity with modern frameworks such as React and React Native is useful.

With the following software and hardware list you can run all code files present in the book (Chapter 1-9).
