Define the AWS CDK stack

A CDK stack is a collection of one or more constructs, which define AWS resources. Each CDK stack represents an AWS CloudFormation stack in your CDK app.

To define your CDK, stack follow the instructions for your preferred programming language. This stack defines the following:

• The function's logical name: MyFunction
• The location of the function code, specified in the code property. For more information, see Handler code in the AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) API Reference.
• The REST API's logical name: HelloApi
• The API Gateway endpoint's logical name: ApiGwEndpoint
