AWS Projects: Get hands-on practice with multiple AWS services - AWS Project: Build a Resume/CV on AWS, Step-by-Step Tutorial to Help You Get Hired

People often ask me what AWS projects they can build to put on their resume/CV, and how to showcase their AWS skills to potential employers. Well, how about actually building the resume itself on AWS? That's what we'll do in this video! In a hands-on tutorial, I'll walk you through how to build a simple resume/CV that uses HTML, CSS and JavaScript (with a little help from ChatGPT). Then we'll upload the files to an S3 bucket that we configure for static website hosting, with public access. From there, we'll move to Route 53 so we can use a custom domain on our resume (and if you have a domain from an external provider like GoDaddy or NameCheap, I'll show you how to get started with that). Finally, we'll set up an SSL/TLS certificate with AWS Certificate Manager, and then create a CloudFront distribution (that points to S3) where we can apply the certificate. In the end, you'll have a fully-working online resume that you can share with friends, family and potential employers. 🤓Here's all the code and resources you'll need: • HTML, CSS and JavaScript files (3 total, in a zip file) that you can use as a starting point: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LyJyHE_oNpZnw9FbLlqpaPTPvSvh9JSt/view?usp=sharing • S3 bucket policy to allow public read access to your files: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Y9Vjom6lbdKdfbw672FWGJ0WVO8gbemFUMsE72LqDac/edit?usp=sharing • LinkedIn article if you need help using a domain name from an external provider like GoDaddy: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/pointing-third-party-registrar-aws-route-53-guilherme-renkel-wehmuth/ 🤓 Two other AWS project videos you might enjoy: • An end-to-end application to do simple math: https://youtu.be/7m_q1ldzw0U • A full web application for ride sharing with unicorns (Wild Rydes): https://youtu.be/zuKu0VFiwas 🤓 Here are some other videos for services referenced in the video: • AWS Budgets (make sure you don't get any surprise bills!): https://youtu.be/WtokD2JD7K8 • Route 53 and DNS addressing basics: https://youtu.be/JRZiQFVWpi8 • CloudFront basics: https://youtu.be/GUfAQUjA3a0 🤓 A written tutorial for this project: https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/aws-project-build-a-resume 🌟🌟If you're interested in getting AWS certifications, check out these full courses.
