Our client wants to build up a subscriber list to market their new product. The client is paying for AWS and wants us to use it for this project. You are a full-stack engineer and your project manager has tasked you with finding a way to store all the subscriber's emails and creating a way to capture subscriber emails.
The frontend team has come up with a couple of prototypes for the frontend form. You could either wire up one of their prototypes or roll your own!
Your project manager recommends you use the command cdk init to save time. AWS CDK converts into JSON/YAML so the language you implement this feature in is completely up to you! If you need assistance with setting up the project the backend team has a suggested configuration for this type of project. You can browse or copy the Backend Starter that has the set up done for you if you don't want to start completely from scratch.
