-

The example code 2.5 does not contain any mention of an s3-bucket. However, later in figure 2.5 an s3 bucket has been created. So example and result as depicted in the figure do not match.

O'Reilly learning platform Page 2. Hello, CDK
Define Your Lambda Function Application Logic

In the paragraph:

1. In the stack-hello-cdk directory, create a new directory called /lambda

Should be:

1. In the stack-hello-cdk directory, create a new directory called /lambda/lambda-hello-cdk

missing "-g" flag after `npm install` for aws-core-lib installation

Paragraph starting with "You will need to edit"

Instead of "/lib/lib/stack-hello-cdk.ts" (double "lib" and starting with a "/") it should probably be "lib/stack-hello-cdk.ts" (single "lib"; no "/")

In the same paragraph it seems unclear, how CDK may ask me to update my references ("You will also notice that"). This does not happen with the "mv" command and no other command was given, that may trigger CDK.
