Description

The tutorial's section about accessing a Lambda function through an API gateway is out of date. This needs updating.

Right now @finnhodgkin and I are researching how to actually do this (which is what the current time estimate is for), and once we have worked that out and finished running through the tutorial we will work on updating the tutorial (for which we'll add another time estimate).

Possibly relates to #62
