Vue.js is a popular JavaScript framework for front-end development. It is lightweight, has a dynamic ecosystem, and is expected to grow further as more developers adopt it. This course uses a hands-on project—a WhatsApp clone—to cover important concepts of front-end development using Vue.js. The project also uses AWS Amplify to manage and configure various AWS products to develop the application’s backend and to deploy the final product.

The course starts by introducing us to core Vue.js concepts like lifecycle hooks, routing, and state management. It then gives us a step-by-step guide to create a WhatsApp GUI. You’ll integrate the application with AWS Amplify before adding the WhatsApp functionality to the project.

By the end of the course, you’ll have a better understanding of the Vue.js framework. You’ll also get hands-on experience using AWS Amplify to manage various AWS products and services, including AWS Cognito, AWS S3, and AWS DynamoDB, to develop and deploy a Vue.js web application.

Building a WhatsApp Clone with Vue.js and AWS Amplify

# AWS Amplify
 Let’s assume that we want to deploy the following AWS resources, and we can either deploy them manually or provision them using AWS Amplify CLI, AWS SAM CLI, AWS CloudFormation, or Terraform. Let’s take a look at these resources:

- AWS Cognito
- AWS DynamoDB
- Hosting website
- Lambda function
- AWS AppSync 

AWS Amplify has outstanding support in providing serverless AWS resources with best practices incorporated. AWS Amplify simplifies the provisioning and configuring of the backend resources in AWS. It gives us the following:

- AWS CLI to provision our back-end infrastructure in the simplest form. 
- An SDK to integrate our frontend application and connect to the backend.

    AWS Amplify also provides the security of following all the best practices when deploying our services. It takes away the long process of configuring our back-end infrastructure.

Learn about AWS Amplify CLI, which is a tool that simplifies the deployment of serverless resources.
