10× Faster: Push-to-Deploy on AWS (Terraform + GitHub Actions) | Website from Scratch #3

Manual deploys took ~4 minutes. With push-to-deploy they go live in seconds. In this episode of website from scratch we codify S3/CloudFront with Terraform and use GitHub Actions to build, sync, and invalidate CloudFront automatically.
