This project demonstrates how to build a scalable and performant full-stack serverless application using modern technologies like AWS AppSync, AWS Lambda, Amazon Cognito, Amazon DynamoDB, and Vue.js. We will create a Twitter clone from scratch to explore how these technologies can be combined to deliver highly performant, cost-efficient, and scalable applications.

The goal of this project is to showcase how to build a serverless Twitter-like application using AWS services and Vue.js. We will use:
- AWS AppSync for the GraphQL API and real-time communication.
- AWS Lambda to handle business logic and custom resolvers.
- Amazon DynamoDB as the scalable NoSQL database to store user and tweet data.
- Vue.js for the frontend, ensuring a modern, dynamic user interface.
The architecture of the application follows a full serverless approach. Here's a high-level overview of the components:
- AppSync: GraphQL API with real-time subscriptions for tweets and interactions.
- Lambda: Backend logic and data processing.
- DynamoDB: Highly scalable, fully managed NoSQL database.
- Vue.js: Frontend built using Vue.js, communicating with the AppSync API.
- AWS AppSync (GraphQL API)
- AWS Lambda (Serverless compute)
- Amazon DynamoDB (NoSQL Database)
- Amazon Cognito (Authentication Service)
- Vue.js (Frontend framework)
- Amplify (AWS Amplify for easier setup and deployment)
