Whose ready for some second helpings? What's better than one bowl of ice cream, one piece of cake, one donut? Two of them! So I bring you my catchup from my vacation with another MEGA REWIND...🍨🍨🍰🍰🍩🍩 (Ok now I'm hungry 😋)
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.
