Key benefits

  • Explore the capabilities of AWS Amplify with popular app frameworks for both web and mobile app platforms
  • Build your first cloud-native web and mobile applications using AWS Amplify
  • Leverage AWS Amplify to design GraphQL APIs for your web and mobile applications

Description

AWS Amplify is a modern toolkit that includes a command line interface (CLI); libraries for JS, iOS, and Android programming; UI component libraries for frameworks like React, Angular, and Vue.js for web development, and React Native and Flutter for mobile development. You'll begin by learning how to build AWS Amplify solutions with React and React Native with TypeScript from scratch, along with integrating it with existing solutions. This book will show you the fastest way to build a production-ready minimum viable product (MVP) within days instead of years. You'll also discover how to increase development speed without compromising on quality by adopting behavior-driven development (BDD) and Cypress for end-to-end test automation, as well as the Amplify build pipeline (DevOps or CI/CD pipeline) to ensure optimal quality throughout continuous test automation and continuous delivery. As you advance, you'll work with React to determine how to build progressive web apps (PWAs) with Amplify and React Native for cross-platform mobile apps. In addition to this, you'll find out how to set up a custom domain name for your new website and set up the AWS Amplify Admin UI for managing the content of your app effectively. By the end of this AWS book, you'll be able to build a full-stack AWS Amplify solution all by yourself.

Who is this book for?

This book is for developers and tech companies looking to develop cloud-native products rapidly with the AWS ecosystem. Web and mobile developers with little-to-no experience in TypeScript programming will also find this book helpful. Although no prior experience with AWS or TypeScript is required, basic familiarity with modern frameworks such as React and React Native is useful.

What you will learn

  • Build React and React Native apps with Amplify and TypeScript
  • Explore pre-built Amplify UI components for rapid prototyping
  • Add user management with Amplify authentication to your app
  • Use Amplify GraphQL to create a blog post
  • Discover how to upload photos to Amplify Storage
  • Enable DevOps with the Amplify pipeline for your app
  • Get to grips with BDD and test automation with Cypress and Cucumber
  • Set up a custom domain name for your website and manage app content with the Amplify Admin UI

I just bought the book, based on the glance inside. It's got exactly the beginner level of tech material I was looking for. And you just published it! I'm learning AWS Amplify at the right time. Just finished the example SwiftUI deployment from the AWS Website, now I can do the real stuff, using the material in your book. THANK YOU for writing this! Thank you thank you thank you.

I have spent most of my career working with web application development. Amazon Web Services became the disruptor of status quo with the introduction of serverless technology. And now, with the introduction of Amplify, AWS has taken their disruption to a whole new level. This is the best information I have read covering Amplify. The descriptions of the use of various AWS technologies is perfectly aligned with actual development needs. The complex nature of development using Amplify is simplified to steps that almost anyone could follow to build an application and launch it into the cloud.In today’s technical world, "ability to code" is now the metric of measurement for worth. This book provides fundamental information about serverless app development using React JS, React Native and Expo, with sample code available in all three platforms. Most of the step-by-step guidance is focused on Expo, and I have to admit I was not enthusiastic about learning yet another development platform. However, as I worked through some of the details, it became clear to me the advantage of using this powerful framework to build one code base for iOs, Android and web.This book provides a solid set of quick start details for rapidly taking a project from concept to deployment, complete with CI/CD and automated testing. Amplify reminds me of the one-man music show enabled by the electronic keyboard, with which a talented artist can sound like an entire band. Using the information provided in this book, a single programmer could launch an entire application within a short period of time, with all the bells and whistles one would expect from a large team of developers.

Essential. From the author's hand, we delve into the AWS Amplify tools, managing to interest the most novices as well as convincing the most professionals. During the course of your reading we are going to go through the three states of matter. Solid, because, and it is natural, at the beginning we will find that certain opposition to the new and / or unknown. However, as we move into its reading and advance in our knowledge, we go to the liquid state and as Bruce Lee said, "It flows like water, my friend." And it is true, the further we go into reading it, the more fluid everything is ... until we reach the ecstasy of the gaseous state and we tend to occupy everything, to understand everything and we are, finally, amplified. - Ferran Escudero

Rapid Application Development with AWS Amplify,gives you a practical guide on how to develop modern Serverless web and mobile apps from scratch with AWS Amplify.The book covers all AWS services needed for a simple app like authorization, database, file storage, and GraphQL API. Book also covers manual deployment and automatic DevOps pipeline with your Git provider.My favorite topics in the book are GraphQL real-time subscriptions and Storage API to work with files on S3.AWS Amplify quickly adds new features, so I recommend reading about these useful features on Amplify docs:- DataStore - simple data API for online and offline access- Storage levels - upload public or private files- AppSync schema directives like @auth and @function- CLI command: amplify mock

I've been working with AWS Amplify for some time, and I've used it only for my side projects, but when I started to use Amplify there were only online tutorials but no books. Then I found Rapid Application Development with AWS Amplify.In the beginning, I thought the book was elementary, but when I was reading more chapters of the book and working with the code, I noticed new stuff I didn't know.I was only using Amplify for web applications. The author also shows the code and examples for the web and React Native and Expo applications. That was valuable for me since I plan to create mobile applications as well in the future.I am now going deep with React Native code examples in the book to use this knowledge in my side projects.If you are a beginner or if you have some experience with AWS Amplify, I think you definitely should read this book.I am sure you would find it interesting and valuable for your projects in AWS Amplify, and more if you are also considering creating web and mobile applications.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
