The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) has been a game-changer for software development on Windows. Paired with VS Code and its remote development feature, it is a powerful alternative to the traditional MacOS and Linux development environments. Having all my projects in VS Code within WSL has been a great development experience.

Moving out can be an overwhelming and stressful process: organizing, packing, scheduling. I recently had to move from the mainland US back to my hometown in Puerto Rico. I don’t move often, much less cross country, and I’m no expert in the subject. However, in my engineering mindset, this was a great opportunity to learn and document some of the steps I took in trying to optimize the process. My moving goals were to save time and money, reduce work…

In Part 2 of this series, we learned how to create a custom Python package and use make to share it across the Lambda functions. We will work on testing our code locally, build it, deploy it to AWS and run it in on the cloud. In this part of the series we will use CircleCI along with the following tools:
- AWS CLI 1.16
- AWS SAM CLI 0.18
The AWS CLI is used to access and change AWS resources from…

When going serverless, a micro-service monorepo can be a great way to structure your project. Why choose a monorepo instead of a monolith or a multirepo? Monorepos have the following benefits:
- Each Lambda function focuses on a particular task
- Sharing code across Lambda functions is easier
- Centralized deployment and documentation
- Scalable management of code using the same repository
In this series, we’ll learn how to build a simple serverless application (from setup to deployment) in AWS using a monorepo structure…
