CLIENT

The client folder contains a web application that can use the API that should be developed in the project.

This frontend should work with your serverless application once it is developed, you don't need to make any changes to the code. The only file that you need to edit is the config.ts file in the client folder. This file configures your client application just as it was done in the course and contains an API endpoint and Auth0 configuration:

const apiId = '...' API Gateway id
export const apiEndpoint = `https://${apiId}.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/dev`

export const authConfig = {
  domain: '...',    // Domain from Auth0
  clientId: '...',  // Client id from an Auth0 application
  callbackUrl: 'http://localhost:3000/callback'
}

Client Authentication

To implement authentication in your application, you would have to create an Auth0 application and copy "domain" and "client id" to the config.ts file in the client` folder. We recommend using asymmetrically encrypted JWT tokens.

Client Run

To run a client application first edit the client/src/config.ts file to set correct parameters. And then run the following commands:

cd client
npm install
npm run start

This should start a development server with the React application that will interact with the serverless TODO application.

BACKEND

Backend run

cd backend
npm install
sls deploy -v

DynamoDB
