Deploying this site to AWS Amplify

This site started as a local Next.js project. Once the design was in a good place, the next step was making it reachable at builtbydhruv.com.

The pieces

  • AWS Amplify Hosting — connected to this repo on GitHub; every push to the production branch triggers a build and deploy, no servers to manage
  • Route 53 — DNS for the domain, with records pointed at the Amplify distribution
  • ACM — the TLS certificate Amplify provisions and renews automatically
  • Next.js API routes — the contact form runs as server-side compute on Amplify, no separate backend to run

More details on the actual setup will land here as it evolves.
