The 19th CB Spotlight...too good to quit, too bad to brag. The purgatory of rankings.
Welcome back to another edition of this week's AWS Community Builders Spotlight! With so much great content being created every day, I realized we had no way of spotlighting it to the world. So here I am, sharing my picks in hopes you'll find these pieces as interesting as I do.
Before I share the content you may have missed, a quick disclaimer: Although I'm an AWS employee, any and all opinions here are my own.
