Template for "Init AWS CloudFront/S3 CDN"

This is a template to configure your own CDN, hosted on AWS.

Getting started

• Replace values in ./config.ts and ./cdk.context.json by your own
• (optional) Change the AWS profile being used in ./package.json (if you don't want to use the default)
• Run yarn, to install all Node.js dependencies locally
• Run yarn bootstrap, to configure the CDK locally
• (optional) Run yarn synth, to preview the CloudFormation file
• Run yarn deploy, to deploy the CDN stack on AWS

Known issues:

• AssertDescription: CDK bootstrap stack version 6 required this happens when calling the synth command while the option newStyleStackSynthesis is NOT false, see aws/aws-cdk#17942
  • To avoid misleading errors, I've disabled newStyleStackSynthesis so that you don't run into this when running yarn synth for the first time, but you should make it true once you've successfully deployed your stack (to see diffs)

AWS Stack

It uses the following components:

• AWS S3: For storing files in an AWS Bucket
• AWS CloudFront: For applying a CDN on top of the AWS S3 Bucket and using a custom domain for the hosted files
• AWS Route 53: For using a Hosted Zone and a SSL Certificate
