AWS Amplify is a set of tools and services that can be used together or on their own, to build
scalable full stack applications, powered by AWS.
In this example, I used it to automate the deployments of website updates. They are triggered by a
commit to the Github code repository: https://github.com/ArvidEllan/portfolio24. Domain name https://www.ellanwambugu.com/ is hosted by
Namecheap.
Here are the steps:
Pre-requisite: design a website and push code to Github. Use a good branching strategy to
develop each feature,
and create pull requests to merge to master branch.
Step 1: Create a Project on Amplify
Step 2: Add the domain name to the configuration
Step 3: Deploy the application
Step 4: Test the automation
