AWS AppSync Example

This repo sets out to demonstrate how to create an app sync backend and react frontend with cloudformation

Setup

Requirements

1. AWS account
2. AWS Cli installed
3. AWS Cli set up with a default user

Deployment

First make a copy of the config file in the frontend

cd frontend && cp config.example.json && cd ..

Then install dependencies and deploy the backend

cd backend && npm install && cd src/posts/lambdaResolvers && npm install && ../../.. && sls deploy -v && cd ..

Copy the outputs of the stack deploy into frontend/config.json. Now you can run the frontend

cd frontend && npm install && npm start
