So I'm trying to set up a simple test for using AWS lambda.

Docs suck. Docs are circular.

Forum sucks. Sign in, but apparently can't post for several hours.

There's f***ing link in their forum to "why can't I post?" Error Posting Messages to the AWS Forums[^]

JFC. Why can't they just say that on their f***ing forum page?

Actually, it's not even a link. I had to copy and paste the stupid-ass thing. This is full text:

Quote:
Your account is not ready for posting messages yet. See the following article for details: https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/error-forum-post/


They can't even provide a clickable link. Dead | X|

Internet sucks. Can't find a single comprehensive "here's how you use VS2017 with AWS lambda". You'd think Amazon would have such an article, but their links are like a labyrinth that leads nowhere.

It's like they purposely put up detours, wrong way streets, and roadblocks to get you to use Azure instead, which was a 30 second easy-peasy setup.

Downloaded and installing AWS SDK for .NET[^] knowing darn well it wouldn't work.

And sure enough it doesn't. No "setup your account" on the startup page as the instructions state there should be. No AWS template when I create a folder, as the instructions state there should be.

As anyone gotten this pile of dung (specifically the turd called lambda) working with VS2017? A simple yes or no will suffice. Yes will give me vacuous hope, no will confirm my cynicism.

end-of-rant.

For now.
