Build fast, real-world web applications using Retool and AWS serverless technologies from scratch.
In this course, you'll learn how to design modern full stack web applications using Retool for the frontend and AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and PostgreSQL for the backend.
You’ll start by learning how to design interactive Retool screens that communicate seamlessly with AWS services. These screens act as the frontend of your application, allowing you to trigger workflows, retrieve data, and manage business logic with minimal code.
Next, you’ll learn how to build and deploy AWS Lambda functions, enabling you to run backend logic without managing servers. You’ll understand how to structure Lambda code, configure triggers, and deploy scalable serverless functions.
You’ll then create and deploy AWS API Gateway endpoints, exposing your Lambda functions as secure REST APIs. This allows your Retool application to communicate with backend services through clean and well-defined routes.
The course also covers PostgreSQL database configuration, where you’ll learn how to connect your application to a Postgres database, store data persistently, and retrieve it efficiently.
Finally, you’ll integrate Retool, API Gateway, AWS Lambda and PostgreSQL to build a complete, rapid, and fully serverless full stack web application that is scalable, maintainable, and production-ready.
