As we now understand how the AWS API Gateway service works at a basic level, we will move on to use that knowledge for building an end-to-end project which involves deploying a completely serverless API.
In this section, we will be building and deploying a completely serverless API function from scratch, along with learning the internals and other implementation details of the AWS Lambda—AWS API Gateway integrations. We will be building the serverless API step-by-step. So, follow along with the steps in this order. The procedure is as follows:
