Hi folks, I’m enjoying Hugo and spent some time setting up my new Hugo site deployment to AWS S3 using GitHub actions.
It ended up being a fairly involved process which I decided to detail step by step in this walkthrough: How to deploy a Hugo site to S3 in 2024.
In this guide I cover:
- Web Hosting in AWS
- Hosting in S3
- DNS in Route53
- Secure and Fast Communication using CloudFront
- Continuous Deployment to S3 with GitHub Actions
- Authentication and Authorization between GitHub and AWS
- GitHub Actions Workflow
I hope this will be useful to peeps embarking on the same journey. Happy to clarify any part of it if needed.
