Progress check: Authentication

Progress check: Authentication

- [Instructor] Let's recap everything you learned so far and see how the different pieces fit together. Since the last progress review, you have learned about authentication, authorization, and Amazon Cognito. You have learned what is Amazon Cognito, how to create the needed Cognito resources for providing authentication and authorization in WebOps using AWS CDK. You learned how to use the Amplify Auth Library to easily call those services from your client application. Additionally, you learned how to test your application locally using cloud resources to speed up the process of development. At this point, you successfully hosted the to-do web app using Amplify and added authentication using Cognito user pools. However, the application is currently failing as the API for managing the task are not yet implemented. Next, you'll learn how to create a simple API using API Gateway with Lambda, working with DynamoDB, creating more complex APIs with API Gateway and much more. So exciting…
