Workshop steps:

1. Hello world: Deploys an example API that returns the requested endpoint.
2. Hitcounter: Deploys a custom Construct that counts the API endpoint calls and stores them in a DynamoDB table.
3. Table viewer: Deploys a third-party Construct called TableViewer. This construct deploys a function that returns an HTML document that represents a DynamoDB Table.
4. SPA: Deploys a second stack that contains a SPA.
