How to build a complete serverless platform using AI coding tools.
Darryl Ruggles, AWS Community Builder, joins Julian Wood to share how he built a full-featured blogging platform on AWS serverless services using Claude Code and MCP servers. Learn what works (and what breaks) when using AI assistants for real production projects. Discover how MCP servers for Terraform, AWS documentation, and serverless patterns keep you in flow without context switching. Get an honest take on where AI coding tools are today, what experienced developers still need to bring, and how to move fast without sacrificing security.
We are also available to answer any of your serverless questions.
