Conventions Used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: “You will use the detect_labels API from Amazon Rekognition in the code.”

Any block of code, command-line input, or output is written as follows:

class MyFirstCdkStack extends Stack { constructor(scope: App, id: string, props?: StackProps) {  super(scope, id, props);

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: “In CloudWatch, each Lambda function will have a log group and, inside that log group, many log streams.”
