config file config.js:

const apiId = 'ufrfpcmqlk';
export const apiEndpoint = `https://${apiId}.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/dev`;

export const authConfig = {
    domain: 'guetteluis.auth0.com',            // Auth0 domain
    clientId: '6JmwmnbwB0xzD3HVf2gWTW57P8YLAQWC',          // Auth0 client id

To implement authentication in your application, you would have to create an Auth0 application and copy "domain" and "client id" to the config.js file in the client folder.

How to run the application

Backend

To deploy an application run the following commands:

cd backend
npm install
sls deploy -v

Frontend

npm run serve

This should start a development server with the VueJS application that will interact with the serverless Book application.
