Hands-on with Amazon CloudFront

I recently explored Amazon CloudFront, AWS’s content delivery network (CDN) service, and here’s a hands-on guide based on what I learned. If you’re a beginner looking to speed up your static site or app delivery using CloudFront, this post is for you!

** Step-by-Step Setup
Break it down step by step. Example sections:

Create an S3 Bucket (if you're hosting a static site)

Upload Your Website Files

Create a CloudFront Distribution

Set Origin Settings (point to your S3 bucket)

Configure Cache Behavior & Default Settings

Enable Logging (optional but useful)

Get Your CloudFront URL and Test It
