Deployment

[AndrewKvalheim]

Automate deployment from the main branch to https://attend.seagl.org/.

The manual process is:

# Build static site
make

# Deploy static site
aws s3 sync --acl 'public-read' --delete './dist/' "s3://$AWS_S3_BUCKET/"
aws cloudfront create-invalidation --distribution-id "$AWS_CF_DISTRIBUTION" --paths '/*'

Any reason we can't just deploy this to GitHub Pages instead of CloudFront?

[AndrewKvalheim]

Nope, that should work fine. In 2020 when I started this S3 was just the solution I was most familiar with and the repository wasn’t even on GitHub. I still haven’t read much about GitHub Actions and still know GitHub Pages only as a Jekyll host.
