Introduction1:12

Introduction of NodeJs4:37
Explore Node.js, an open source server side JavaScript runtime built on Chrome V8, enabling server side scripting, non-blocking input/output, single threaded event loop, and scalable real-time applications.
Understanding NodeJs7:32
Learn how node.js runs server-side javascript, execute index.js with node, print with console.log, initialize npm and create package.json, and explore json web tokens and ChatGPT API packages.
Installing NPM Packages2:12
Learn to install npm packages and manage dependencies with package.json, including json web token, import them into code, and understand node_modules in preparation for AWS Lambda.

Creating First Lambda function23:36
Create your first lambda function in a node.js project, exploring the handler, event payloads, and a welcome response. Define serverless.yml for AWS, http events, then deploy and see two APIs.
Using Serverless Framework for Creating Lambda Function13:56
Learn to build serverless functions for AWS Lambda with Serverless framework, including installing Node.js, configuring the CLI, creating a learning service, and deploying via serverless.yml with providers, functions, and resources.
Understanding Lambda Function API example3:53
API Method, HTTP Request Response Cycle and Lambda Function code structure16:53
Deploying on AWS Lambda4:56
Deploying a serverless function on AWS Lambda with serverless deploy, configuring AWS CLI, watching the CloudFormation stack, and testing the function via its URL.
Updating Serverless.yml file10:26
Update the serverless.yml to define http events for lambda functions, deploy with serverless, and test endpoints that return responses.

Upcoming Lecture1:42
Explore alternative methods to create AWS Lambda functions with Node.js, implement product CRUD operations using Serverless and DynamoDB, and access the accompanying GitHub repository for code.
Introduction of the new section0:58
Explore an alternative method to create AWS Lambda functions without the serverless module and deploy a local Lambda function to AWS Lambda using a zip file.

Binding Lambda function with API gateway12:05
bind a lambda function to an api gateway by building a rest api, configuring lambda proxy integration, deploying the api, and testing the invoke url to trigger the function.
Getting "event" in response4:57
Showcases returning a Lambda response to API Gateway with status code 200 and a stringified body containing the hello from Lambda and the input event, tested via browser.
Creating POST type of method using API Gateway7:33
