A self-paced workshop to build a RN app using AWS Amplify

React Native The AWSome Way!

This is a self-paced workshop designed for developers who want to build a React Native mobile application using mobile services from Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Reference Architecture

Our application allow users to create meetups and also to join existing meetups. Each meetup has also a chat feature to let users discuss about the event.

Screenshots

The data model will consist of:

• Users: a list of users who are using the app
• Events: a list of events created by the users in the app
• Chats: a list of chat messages created in the event by users
• EventUserJoined: a joint table between users and events to indicate who is joining which events

Our mobile application will be written in React Native. We will also be using AWS Amplify. AWS Amplify provides a declarative and make it really easy to add features like authentication and analytic to our mobile application. Our backend will be powered by AWS AppSnyc, a fully managed GraphQL service. AWS AppSync defines a GraphQL Schema with data types and GraphQL operations (query, mutation and subscription). It also associate a set of resolvers to Amazon DynamoDB, where we have 4 tables for our data models.
