How to connect your flask application to AWS RDS with a CI/CD pipeline

In this video I go through:

1. Creating an AWS RDS instance with PostgreSQL
2. Modifying a flask app to connect to the RDS instance
3. Setting up pgadmin so you can interact with the database server locally
4. CI/CD pipeline with GitHub actions

All the code for the video is on GitHub as well, with the link in the video description.
