This guide walks you through deploying a sample application to Elastic Beanstalk using Elastic Beanstalk Command Line Interface (EB CLI) and git, and then updating the application to use the Express framework.

The Elastic Beanstalk Command Line Interface (EB CLI) is a command line client that you can use to create, configure, and manage Elastic Beanstalk environments. The EB CLI is developed in Python and requires Python version 2.7, version 3.4, or newer.
