aws sdk for mac os x application development [closed]

I need to develop an application for MAC OS X, which will be uploading the chosen files to amazon web services. But for that I need aws sdk for mac. I haven't found any on the web. Is it possible to modify the AWS SDK for iOS so it can be used for Mac?

Also, the AWS SDK documentation doesn't explain how to upload files to S3. Does anyone have an example of how to do this?

Thanks

What is the difference between AWS SDK and CDK?

What is difference between AWS CDK and SDK? CDK is Infrastructure as Code, which means you can write code to create AWS resources like API Gateway, DynamoDB or Lambda. On the other hand, SDK helps to interact with these AWS resources for ex: fetch the items from DynamoDB or list the contents of S3 bucket.

How do I access AWS SDK?

Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the IAM console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/ . In the navigation pane, choose Users. Choose the name of the user whose access keys you want to create, and then choose the Security credentials tab. In the Access keys section, choose Create access key.

When would you use AWS SDK?

AWS SDK (software development kit) helps simplify your coding by providing JavaScript objects for AWS services. It allows developers to access AWS from JavaScript code that runs directly in the browser, and it includes access to AWS components like Amazon S3, Amazon SNS, Amazon SQS, DynamoDB, and more.

Is AWS SDK open source?

The AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK) is an open-source software development framework to model and provision your cloud application resources using familiar programming languages.

I've created a fork of the AWS iOS SDK which can be built and used for Mac OS X development. Check it out: https://github.com/amberdixon/aws-sdk-ios. In the readme, I've included instructions on how to build the Mac OS X version of the AWS iOS SDK framework. The tomandersen repo appears to use a much older version of the iOS SDK, the version I've created is a bit more current.

Judging by a discussion on this topic in the AWS Developer Forums, there doesn't seem to be an official AWS SDK for MacOS X yet, but the iOS version is close to useable. One contributor to that thread has posted a modified version that allegedly works on MacOS X for at least some of the services. I don't have any personal experience with it, but it seems worth a look.
