Build a static web app using this tech stack.

i. Static web hosting using AWS S3

• Create an S3 bucket named exactly after the domain name, for example website.com.
• In Properties, click the Static Website section.
• Click Use this bucket to host a website and enter index.html into Index Document field.
• Don’t enter anything else in this form.
• This will create an “endpoint” on the same screen similar to http://website.com.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com.
• Then click on Permissions tab, then Bucket Policy. Enter this policy:

{
    "Version": "2008-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "AllowPublicRead",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Principal": {
                "AWS": "*"
            },
            "Action": "s3:GetObject",
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET_NAME/*"
        }
    ]
}

Be sure to replace BUCKET_NAME with yours.

Note: Naming the bucket doesn’t have to be exactly the domain name. I read that in several articles that it needed to be, but it doesn’t. If using wildcard domains with AWS, I’ve read that we can’t have dots in the domain name when using wildcard domains. So just know that you can name the bucket whatever, but using dots does work if not using wildcard…
