Implementing 2FA Login With Email On AWS Cognito Using Typescript

Security has become a huge deal in today’s computing world, and one part of security is authentication, in other words proving that you are the person you say you are. For computer systems a username and passoword is enough to authenticate a user, however that has proven to be insufficient for today. That led to 2FA solutions (2 Factor Authentication) which add one more layer of security in the process of identifying a user and basically giving access to certain resource like your bank account, or your email.
