In this guide, we’ll walk through the process of building and deploying a full-stack React application using AWS Lambda for serverless backend functionality and Stripe for payment processing. This setup ensures scalability, cost-effectiveness, and seamless payment integration.

Why AWS Lambda and Stripe?

  • AWS Lambda provides a serverless computing environment, meaning you don’t need to manage infrastructure. It automatically scales and you only pay for what you use.
  • Stripe is a powerful payment processing platform that offers easy-to-integrate APIs, secure transactions, and global payment support.

By leveraging these technologies, you can build an efficient, scalable, and cost-effective full-stack application.

Prerequisites

Before we dive in, ensure you have the following:

  • Node.js and npm installed
  • A React project set up with create-react-app
  • An AWS account with IAM permissions for Lambda, API Gateway, and S3
  • A Stripe account
  • AWS CLI configured with your credentials
