In this 4 part series, we will cover S3 buckets and deploying sites to S3. Using CloudFront as a CDN for your website. Certificate Manager for setting up SSL certifications. Route53 for DNS names and routing policies. Lastly, you will learn how to set up a CI/CD pipeline with CodePipeline.

What you will learn from part 1 of 4:

We will do a deep dive of the different features S3 offers. You will be given example code for uploading object programmatically to S3 Buckets as well as an example JSON object for bucket policies. At the end of the class, we will deploy a React application to S3 as a static web site.
