Deploying Hugo Websites to AWS CloudFront and S3 for Faster Content Delivery

A new way to deploy my hugo websites

A simple and cost-effective approach to deploying Hugo projects to AWS CloudFront.

I have and still do use services like AWS Amplify and Netlify to automate my CI/CD pipeline for many of my projects, triggered by a GitHub check-in and running in GitHub Actions. However, for a recent photography project that involved deploying a large number of files, storing everything in GitHub wasn’t feasible. I needed a solution that was simple, affordable, and delivered high performance. That’s when I decided to use AWS CloudFront with an S3 bucket, integrated with an SSL certificate generated through CloudFront.

Why AWS CloudFront?

Tarragon Beets Salad

With some green tomatoes on top

This was an attempt to copy a salad from Bristol Farms. I ended up modifying it quite a bit from the initial ingredients.
