awesome-projen VS aws-cdk

I recently started exploring SST as an alternative to my favorite full-stack set consisting of Projen, AWS CDK, and React. I have been thoroughly impressed with the experience so far. In this article, I will demonstrate how to create a Next.js App Router S3 Picture Uploader using SST.

Custom Blue Prints are powered by Projen under the hood – to learn more about Projen, please look here. Similar to a projen.rc.ts you will need to create a blueprint.ts file in the src folder of your BluePrint project. There you can then define the rules and automations which will be applied when the BluePrint is used as a starting point for a new project. Currently the Custom BluePrint SDK allows you to define Wizard configurations, Workflows, Environments, Source Repositories, Pre-Configured Dev Environments, … Using Projen as an underying technology the team is able to re-generate the code for your project and create a pull request on your behalf for the source repository of your project i there is changes. And this is great!

Or if you like a declarative approach you could look into Projen: https://github.com/projen/projen

If you goto the main projen README.md, you'll see these instructions for using your new module:

https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk#at-a-glance is the "generate cloudformation using code," and is the AWS version of troposphere as best I can tell

environment: Specifies the environment variable that will be available to our Lambda function. In this case I wrote an environment for RDS Database. Anyway, later I will write about AWS CDK using Python for creating database clusters, etc.

Today, I will show you how to build Amazon Location Service, which allows you to build location-based applications within your AWS environment using AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) and AWS CloudFormation. I will also show examples of the recently popular CDK Migrate and AWS CloudFormation IaC generator.

AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK): is an open-source software development framework to define your cloud application resources using familiar programming languages.

I am not one to build programming languages on a whim. In fact, I've spent the last five years building the AWS CDK, which is a multi-language library that addresses some of the challenges I am talking about by allowing developers to define cloud infrastructure using their favorite programming language.

AWS CDK

For KMS 🔑, Each key is ~$1/mo, and with CDK, keys are generated on a massive scale, if not centralized.

Here is a github repository containing the code and instructions on how to automate this whole setup using AWS CDK.

Now that you have a working smart contract event listener, we'll deploy the resources to AWS using AWS CDK, which is an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool. AWS CDK allows you to configure, deploy, and manage AWS cloud resources using popular programming languages such as TypeScript.
