Personal website

glenwinters.com

This is the frontend for my personal website. It's built with Gatsby.

Development

Requirements:

• Node.js (LTS)

1. Install dependencies

   npm install
   

2. Start the local server

   npm start
   

3. View the site locally in your browser at localhost:8000

Deployment

Requirements:

• AWS profile personal that has access to the target S3 bucket

TARGET_BUCKET_NAME=glenwinters.com TARGET_ADDRESS=https://glenwinters.com npm run build
AWS_PROFILE=personal npm run deploy

The gatsby plugin will ask you to confirm that you're deploying to the correct bucket and region. Accept and it will push the new build to the S3 bucket.

Staging

To deploy to the staging environment, use the following env var values:

TARGET_BUCKET_NAME=staging.glenwinters.com
TARGET_ADDRESS=https://staging.glenwinters.com

CI

On pull request commits, it builds and deploys to staging. On commits to main, it builds and deploys to production. In both cases, it creates a CloudFront invalidation to bust the cache.
