Uploading Text Files to S3 Bucket Using App

Option 1: Implement an existing frontend solution: https://github.com/wesleyrichardson/TRAN1106-React-Frontend

Option 2: Engineer a new frontend solution:

Once cdk deploy is successfully run, the API gateway PROD endpoint will be printed.

Use this endpoint/file-upload as the POST target to upload text files.

Send a POST request to the API-Gateway Endpoint. POST data should take the form of a JavaScript FormData object with three elements: (String message, String fileName, fileObject file)

const formData = new FormData();
        formData.append("demo file", this.state.selectedFile, this.state.selectedFile.name);

axios.post(this.state.postTarget, formData)
