Use the provided credentials and login to AWS:

https://975050296970.signin.aws.amazon.com/console

Create and save your ACCESS_KEY and SECRET_KEY through the AWS UI:

viadee-cdk-challenge @ 9750-5029-6970 > 
Security credentials > 
Create access key > 
Command Line Interface (CLI)

Use the created keys to login to the region eu-central-1:

aws configure

Check if the login was successfully:

aws sts get-caller-identity

Think about an unique project name and create a folder with mkdir -p <project_name>. Go to the directory and create a CDK projekt in your language of choice (e.g. java, typescript, go).

cdk init --language <LANG>

In your project should be commented code to create a SQS Queue (in the Stack class or file). Activate the code and create your CDK stack:

cdk deploy

Open AWS CloudFormation und check the created queue:

https://eu-central-1.console.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation

If you completed the level, talk to the tutor. He will provide you the link to the next challenge.

(Optional) Clean up the created infrastructure:

cdk destroy

---

Side Note: If the commented queue is not available in your project, this is how it looks like in typescript:

    import * as sqs from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-sqs';
    ...
    //example resource
    const queue = new sqs.Queue(this, 'ExampleProjectQueue', {
        visibilityTimeout: cdk.Duration.seconds(300)
    });
    ...

Adapt it to your programming language of choice and add it to the stack. You will need the Queue later on.
