Building serverless applications with GraphQL

on YouTube ↗39m

" summary

Shows how to architect a serverless GraphQL backend using AppSync with concrete wiring: a live sample creates two DynamoDB tables (events and comments), auto-generates resolvers, and executes queries that create and list events successfully. Uses VTL templates for resolvers, offers subscriptions and offline sync, and integrates Cognito for auth. Claims a full functional app in under a day, handled 16 different client platforms in a real migration, and reports a four-month migration from a five-year monolith to serverless.
