Respect!!
The diagram on your Readme.md is soo neat. Incase I missed it, what did you use in drawing your diagram?
bro🔥🔥
Yes siiir!
Lol third time I am watching the video because I need it to stick. It will be done....
Let's gooo! However long it's needed! You're also free to do other research too
Excited to get into this one!
Appreciate the support always!
First of all!!! The quality is insane, so crispy. We need a video on your setup
Hhaha I need to right! Thank you, I look into created a vid for that!
Have you considered a lecturing role. I think you're the best when it comes to impacting knowledge
Maan that means a lot!! For real!
Niceeeee! Adding in containers in week 2. Glad to see the whiteboard again.
We back with the white boarding! :)
Great video! where can I see the challenges?
Thank you and join the discord to see all the video links. Also check the link in the description for more information!
Interesting ❤
Thanks for the support!
Great contents, great explanations! Thank you for the simplified approach! Glad to have found you channel, I just subscribed and followed you on LinkedIn!
Respect maan!
hope i am not late to the party ? i just completed mine.
It's never too late :)
Did you code or do anything related to that in the final round of the technical round ? I also messaged you on LinkedIn.
Nope no coding rounds or coding involved :)
Great!
THANKS YOO!
All test API Keys/AWS Accounts/Email used to create this video have deactivated or deleted after filming so no need for you to try them out or worry about them being exposed in this video :)
I’ve always called the API a glorified concierge service
That's the truth there!
Do you have to go to the office everyday?? Just got an offer for this role
It really depends on the team and org in general. I didnt have to go in office for this video just went that day specifically. However, if you have an offer, just ask your recruiter/manager on what your mandate will be.
Hi, This is a very interesting video. However, I cannot see the previous steps for setting up an AWS account and GitHub.
after all at 26:00 key is shown
Yeaa I’ve realized. I’ve already revoked them though 😂. So it’s fine 😁
Expected this 😊
Nice , this was explained very well !
Thanks a lot! Glad you learned from it!!
I’ve just joined the discord group. I hope it’s not too late.
it's never too late!! :)
You break this down really well. I think it would be great to add what each day is about in the title, as it will make it easier to discover.
I just added the technologies in it! Thanks a lot and love the feedback!!
wonderful content, this hands on practice solidified my understanding of some aws services. your api key was exposed in the URL with the json document, you might want to revoke it.👍
Glad it resonated with you and someone else also pointed out about the keys haha.. I already revoked them, deleted my account :).Thank youuu!
Thanks for the content. This use case helped me understand AWS services better
It’s my pleasure! So Glad it helped!!
Bur why did we use eventbridge when lambda can schedule its own function by itself?
Soo actually No.. Lambda cannot schedule a function itself to run on a specific time. That’s why we used EventBridge.
My best discovery of 2025 so far. You know a great teacher when he makes high level pictural explanation before jumping into the boring part. God bless you Rex
Thanks for the kind words and glad you're enjoying the content maan! For real
@REXTECH thanks for the video check the URL on 26:03
Thanks for catching that! I'll just leave it there i'm on the free tier and will delete my account anyway after this haha

@@saketthite1888 I’ll def will. I’ll make another duel about this resources soon! But Glassdoor, Reddit and Blind is what I used to find sample interview questions along those lines. Then I used RUclips, Google and ChatGPT to really study and answer them. 😊
This is one of the best videos I ever watche and I would watch again and again.
