Hi @jayair
In most tutorial I've done using AWS to create serverless websites, I've had to name the s3 bucket identically to the domain I plan to point at it. So if I wanted to use "www.example.com" as my domain, the bucket in s3 would literally be named "www.example.com". Would you be able to explain how you avoided that in this tutorial?

@bharloe You need to use the same name if your domain in Route 53 is going to be pointing to your S3 bucket directly. In our case we use a CloudFront Distribution in front so you don't need to follow the naming convention.
