Are these AWS notes free to download?
Yes. Every set of notes on this page is free to download as a PDF, with no sign-up, email capture, or payment. They are shared with the community exactly as they were written.
Which AWS certifications do these notes cover?
Three exams: AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02), AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate (SAA-C03), and AWS Certified AI Practitioner (AIF-C01). Each set follows the domains in that exam's official guide.
Which AWS certification should I start with?
Start with Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) if you are new to AWS — it establishes the vocabulary, the global infrastructure, and the billing model that every other exam assumes you already know. Move to Solutions Architect Associate (SAA-C03) once you are comfortable designing with core services. AI Practitioner (AIF-C01) is a separate foundational track for AI and machine learning on AWS.
Are these notes enough to pass the AWS exam on their own?
They are written to be your revision layer, not your only resource. I used them alongside hands-on practice in the console and a set of practice exams. The notes are strongest in the final weeks before the exam, when you need to consolidate rather than learn from scratch.
Who wrote these AWS notes?
Mohammed Abdullah Khan, a 3× AWS Certified full-stack and React Native developer. These are the same notes used to clear all three certifications, since shared publicly and used by more than 20 other students to pass their own exams.
What format are the notes in?
PDF. Each one opens in Google Drive for reading in the browser, or downloads directly so you can annotate it offline.
Can I share these notes with my study group?
Please do. They were written to be passed around — share the link with anyone preparing for the same exams.
What does the Accessibility Handbook cover?
WCAG 2.2 and the POUR principles, semantic HTML, ARIA roles and live regions, keyboard navigation and focus management, colour contrast requirements, React Native accessibility props, and how to test with VoiceOver and TalkBack. It is code-first, so nearly every concept comes with the markup to implement it.
