🛠️ Configuration

To make the serverless API work, you'll need to set up AWS services:

1. AWS Lambda:

   • Go to the AWS Management Console.
   • Navigate to the Lambda section.
   • Create a new function or use an existing one.

2. API Gateway:

   • In the console, go to the API Gateway section.
   • Create a new API and link it with your Lambda function.

3. DynamoDB:

   • Go to the DynamoDB console.
   • Create a new table to store your data. Make note of the table name and region; you'll need them for the configuration.

4. Environment Variables:

   • Set your AWS access keys and region in the application settings.

🔑 AWS Credentials

For the application to communicate with AWS services, you will need your AWS Access Key ID and Secret Access Key. Store them in a safe place.
