If you are still monitoring this thread my cdk app will not synth. It appears to be an incompatibility of different cdk versions for the packages. the error is actually "throw new Error('construct does not have an associated node. All constructs must extend the "Construct" base class');" which upon investigation had cdk version incompatibility as the most probable cause.

Very nice video, got recommended. Didn't even know cdk existed.

Great video, thanks. New to CDK. If you need to make changes or continue to develop the lambda function, would you keep it here or move that development over to SAM or whatever flow you are using.

Should we run cdk bootstrap after cdk synth?

Thank you, but I'm unable to find the documentation for AWS CDK javascript, I can see CDK with python, java, Go, .Net though ~~~

Thx! I'm struggling to find some actual content for JS developers using the AWS CDK.
