In this final post for a two-part series, we’ll go over an additional script that can be used to upload all local static site contents to a previously configured Amazon Web Services S3 bucket.

Amazon Web Services, through their Simple Storage Service (S3), provide an inexpensive and flexible solution for hosting static websites. These would normally be sites that are developed on a local environment (using Hugo or Jekyll), then pushed to either a web server or - in this case - a cloud-based storage platform configured to make the generated pages public. This post discusses a scripted approach to building a bucket you want to use to host an S3 website from scratch.
