Back in the day I shared my two cents about AWS Amplify framework and how useful it is for projects that are on a very early stage. You air your MVP , more features are on the way, more models are created, your project increases, as well as the number of contributors and headaches. Suddenly, you get the feeling that this is giving more problems than solutions, even though the framework at your disposal is damn good 🚀.

This series is intended to give a thorough explanation about the reasons of this move, bumps on the road, but also provide different ways of migrating features.

  1. The good, the bad and the ugly
  2. Migrate (very) easy way
  3. Authentication
  4. API & Database
  5. Web application / Hosting

Feel free to pop out any comments about different approaches. I will really appreciate it.

Nonetheless, stay tuned for more. 🙏
