49. Building a File Transfer application on AWS - Live coding PART 2

This is a special episode recorded live during a live coding session on YouTube (2022-08-24). The audio-only experience might not be the best one, so if you are curious to see the video and enjoy our diagrams and screen sharing, please check this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4wCX32YUtMk

How can you build a WeTransfer or a Dropbox Transfer clone on AWS? This is our second live coding stream. In this episode, we revisited our architecture and added a custom domain to our APIs, and created a new API endpoint that allows us to have download URLs that are much nicer (shorter and branded).

We also added support for the Content-Disposition header to make sure that uploads can specify a file name and that downloads will retain the same file name (regardless of the file key in S3).
