I still have my Podfile open up in my editor. I'll add a new Podfile on line 12. So I'll type pod AWSAppSync. And save that and then in the terminal, run pod install again. This will install the AWS AppSync coco pod to our project and then we can start using it in our code to communicate with the server. Now that we have the coco pod installed in our project, we need to update our code to use it. So back in Xcode, I want to be able to create an AppSync client to run all the mutations against the server. So in the AppDelegate, after line 10, I'm going to type import AWSAppSync and I also want to create a property to store the AppSync client so we can access it from other places in our code so on line 16, I'll type var asClient and make it of type AWSAppSyncClient…
