cloud-resume-challenge

This project is my online resume, a static web page, serving simple html & css I wrote from scratch to keep it clean.

Using "aws-vault", which helps me manage AWS profiles and store credentials securely, and GitHub actions is using secrets for this during CI/CD.

Please see my Dev.to blog post for a good read about this project.

You can visit my domain here which is the result of this project.

How this project works at the moment:

Any push to Main branch will trigger the GitHub actions I created which will:

• terraform init
• terraform apply (auto approve)
• S3 sync my website files (html & css)
• trigger Cypress tests which hit the API endpoint and validate the response (heartbeat check)

high level description of functionality

• S3 bucket hosts the website
• certificates and permissions configured in AWS Route53, ACM, Policies
• Cloudfront used to meet https requirement and cache control
• DynamoDB and Lambda function used to implement visitor counter.
• JS used to retreive counter value from API and display on site
• APIGateway used to implement API endpoint

High level design of major AWS pieces:

All services were configured and provisioned by Terraform IaC code, from the beginning. I built 2 services in the AWS Console before realizing it would be better for my approach to do it all in IaC from the start.

Plenty of changes can be made, I will be adding GitHub Issues to the repo for the items I plan on refactoring.
