Let's get started by creating the API for our notes app.
Let's get started by updating our earlier API infrastructure for use with our notes app.

We'll first add an API to create a note. This API will take the note object as the input and store it in the database with a new id. The note object will contain the `content` field (the content of the note) and an `attachment` field (the URL to the uploaded file).

- We are using a separate stack for our API. We could've used the stack we had previously created for DynamoDB and S3. But this is a good way to talk about how to share resources between stacks.

- This new `ApiStack` expects a `table` resource to be passed in. We'll be passing in the DynamoDB table from the `StorageStack` that we created previously.
