What’s It All About?

Making an environment for people to use their programs in that can be deleted, saved, or reset to a “base” standard easily.

I Don’t Get It 🤔

Let me use an example:

• Open the graphic editor (I.E: Microsoft Paint) of choice.
• Scribble something. Get creative. Have fun!
• Exit out — See the option to save? If you hit no, it’ll be gone. That’s what a Dev environment can do; Erase things so you can start fresh, while the base of the program is still there!

Oh! I Get It Now!

Great!

Onto the Tech:

Concepts Learned:

aws_ami

A data segment instead of resource that pulls an owner number, filters by name (with name), and actual AMI image in 'values'.

Userdata

Made it a template file, it bootstaps the instance as well as installing the docker engine.
