Resolve Next.js URI routing issues with CloudFront Functions

Automate the build and deployment of the web application's infrastructure (CloudFront, S3 bucket, policies, etc). In addition, this post uses AWS AppConfig to host and manage the configuration variables which were housed locally and are not deployed to GitHub

Automate the build and deployment of a static-site (Next.js in this example) front-end application. Create and deploy the pipeline from an Serverless Framework project to listen for merged pull requests on the GitHub repo. Once a matching event is received, a new build will be triggered outputting the static files into the S3 bucket

Import existing AWS resources into an existing CloudFormation Stack, reducing the need to migrate data from S3 or delete and recreate multiple resources

Use AWS CloudFormation and Serverless Framework to automate the creation and configuration of the resources for the static site. This allows additional infrastructure stacks containing the S3 bucket, CloudFormation deployment, and DNS records to be created and deployed using a single command.
