In this chapter, we have learned about Amazon Web Services and created an account, giving us access to all of these services.
We created our first Lambda function using the Lambda Console, and advanced it to use multiple functions, template strings, and requiring in code from other files.
Next, we discussed the three main ways to create Lambdas, namely the Lambda Console, Cloud9, and using local development. We also looked at the advantages and disadvantages of each.
Finally, we used the AWS-CLI and Git to make our local development setup far more powerful. The build script that we used allows us to create and update Lambdas without ever having to go onto AWS.
In the next chapter, we will learn to build our first Alexa Skills using the Alexa Skills Kit.
