serverless-patterns VS Visual Studio Code

You may be aware of Serverlessland, a treasure trove of developer-centered content and examples of serverless applications. I decided to take one of their more popular (and AI-focused) tutorials, titled “Use GenAI capabilities to build a chatbot”, and recreate it with App Composer and our trusty AI assistant. Here we go!

Serverless Land is a place with a ton of serverless resources.

If you're looking for examples, you can check out my GitHub, it's full of SAM templates that cover a wide range of use cases. Serverless Land is another fantastic resource full of reference material. If you are trying to build something but can't quite figure it out in SAM, remember - it's all just CloudFormation. Browse the docs to see how to define that stubborn resource.

I will use dynamodb-streams-to-eventbridge-outbox-pattern by David Boyne as an example.

This is definitely not the most common pattern. As an independent data point, you can look at the AWS-maintained serverlessland.com, where ALL the patterns that include SNS and SQS are going SNS > SQS.

For all my associated exams I used Mareek/TD, labs and for SAP also went through SAP course of A. Cantrill, also tools like https://serverlessland.com/ and aws event talks on YouTube can help you understand concepts.

For serverless, serverlessland.com

If you’re using AWS serverlessland is maintained by AWS and has great resources

First, grab your favorite command-line tool, Terminal or Warp, and a code editor, preferably VS Code and let’s begin.

C# is very good as a language, have developed in it for 5+ years. The problem is the gap between what MSFT promises to management and actually delivers to developers. You really really need to fully read the fine print, think of the omissions in documentation and implement a proof-of-concept that almost implements the full solution to find out the hidden gotchas.

For example, even probably their best product VS Code only got reasonable multiple screens support last year: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10121#issuecommen...

And then, on the other end of the spectrum, you have Teams.

Hey fellow amazing developers, we got you Essential VS Code Extensions for 2024 (these are especially important for web developers) recommended by our developers at evotik, we wont talk about ESlint nor Prettier which all of you already know.

Visual Studio Code (VS Code): Developed by Microsoft, VS Code is a lightweight yet powerful IDE with extensive support for Python development through extensions. It offers features like IntelliSense, debugging, and built-in Git integration.

In VSCode for example this can be easily done by adding the following .vscode/launch.json file:

I had a near-identical experience. I looked into switching in 2019 and ran into this 2016 bug which was a showstopper for me. Fixed it myself, grand total 4 line diff. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10643

When working in Visual Studio Code (VS Code), always create a new Python file for your project.

Code Editor: Choose a code editor like Visual Studio Code that offers good support for web technologies and extensions for PWA development.

When working in Visual Studio Code (VS Code), create a new Python file for our music player project. It's helpful to have separate files for different parts of your project.
