Startup journey
I was working as a freelance consultant. My previous gig had ended, and I didn’t have a new one yet. This was just before COVID started.
I spent my working days learning Angular and other tools that interested me. I built a small customer management application and an invoicing tool just for fun, nothing too serious.
I thought that I could deploy my software to AWS cloud to try it out, because it’s so cool and I wanted to know more about it.
I created an AWS account, that was easy. Hmm, I could create a virtual machine to run my software. But when I started to do that, I couldn’t do anything. What! I didn’t know that everything is denied. You must give permission for yourself to do even smallest thing. This is good, it’s safe, but if you don’t know about it, you have to start learning. I started to read about AWS account, permissions, S3, EC2… My next gig started and I forgot my own project…for a while.
