Separate development and production environments

[kikuomax]

Once we release a product, we should not inattentively change it. So we need a isolated playground where we can continue development after a product is released.

Development environment

Production environment

• App and API have to be hosted under codemonger.io (Host under codemonger.io #33)
• Notification has to come from xyz@codemonger.io (Send emails from codemonger.io #34)

We have to provision two copies of the following resources,

• DynamoDB tables
• Cognito user pool
• APIs (because Cognito user pools are different)

We still can reuse Lambda functions if we carefully version them.

OK, let's start from deploying two copies of CDK stacks.

Give a context that determines development or production to the CDK stack.

Give a context that determines development or production stage to the CDK stack.

We want to change stack name by the designated stage. Can we get a context before creating a Stack instance?

Yes, use an App instance.

This issue is no longer relevant as we start over.
