A demo app for iOS developers who are considering to use Amazon Web Services (AWS) as a backend. The app is written in Swift and uses the AWS iOS SDK.
I am looking for a replacement of Parse. My most important goal is to research the features I need for my commercial app, and prototype them in this demo app.

This version of the app accesses AWS. It uses the following services: Cognito, DynamoDB, S3, IAM

The app will let a user sign up anonymously, and let him/her create a profile. The profile consists of his/her name and a photo.
This version of the app is prepared to access AWS, but in reality it does not yet access AWS at all. Instead it uses a simulated backend.
Example of a clean separation between the backend logic and the other code of the app. This clean separation makes it easier to change backend providers if needed 😉
