Tired of just learning theory? It's time to build like a professional. Welcome to our first major technical workshop under the new **AWS Student Builder Group** identity! This is NOT a theoretical course or a vague introduction to the cloud. This is a complete immersion into a real-world enterprise workflow. In this hands-on workshop, we will bridge the gap between local development and cloud production. You will learn how to design a clean backend API, understand modern serverless architecture, and deploy it live on AWS. **🔥 What you will learn:** * **Part 1: Backend Engineering:** Move from "just coding" to true software design. Learn REST API architecture, clean code practices, error handling, and tools like Git and Postman. * **Part 2: AWS Cloud Fundamentals:** Understand why companies are moving to Serverless. We will break down key services: AWS Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB/RDS, and IAM security. * **Part 3: The "Build" Phase:** Pure hands-on practice. Create your Lambda function, connect it to API Gateway, and deploy a serverless API that is accessible via a public URL. * **Part 4: Production & Integration:** Adopt the professional mindset. Learn how to test your API in production, manage logs with CloudWatch, and understand basic security tokens. **🎯 Expected Outcome:** You won't just leave with notes. Every participant will leave with a functional API deployed online, along with the professional tricks and standards used by modern cloud engineers. **⚠️ Prerequisites:** 1. Bring your laptop. 2. **CRITICAL:** You must create a free AWS account *before* attending the event to save time. 3. Basic knowledge of programming (any language) will be helpful. We will provide a starter project so no one gets left behind! Let's build. Innovate. Solve. Impact. *We are solution providers!*

We’re still working to get more people into these Meetups, but our goal is to give PlayYourCourt members a few social tennis outings each week in addition to your practice sessions and Challenge League matches. These Meetups are co-ed, super laid back, and all skill levels are welcome. Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun! Also, if you’re looking to meet new practice partners or play some matches and you aren’t already in the PlayYourCourt Community, you can go here to see what we’re all about and sign up: https://www.playyourcourt.com/tennis-community/columbus-oh/meetup/ If you love tennis, we’d love to have you! Be sure and watch the quick video that explains how everything works. Happy hitting! - Scott
