Project Description

In this project, we’ll develop a serverless blog platform using AWS SDK and Next.js. This platform will allow users to manage a blog platform with functionalities such as creating, updating, deleting, and listing posts. To achieve this, we’ll design the platform’s architecture using AWS SDK, including serverless components like AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and AWS DynamoDB. We’ll build a simple frontend for the application with Next.js.

First, we’ll create a serverless API for managing CRUD operations using AWS SDK. We will then create a DynamoDB table, followed by Lambda functions for creating, updating, deleting, and retrieving posts. Next, we will deploy these Lambda functions to the AWS console. We will also create and deploy an API with AWS API Gateway and then an API using API Gateway.

Finally, we’ll create a layout to display the created blogs in a list format so that the users can see all the blogs efficiently. We’ll then enable the users to edit and delete a blog. The final version of the application will allow adding, updating, and deleting blogs from the application.
