 # Resume Website Deployment on AWS
 
-This project demonstrates how to deploy a static resume website using **AWS services**, including **Amazon S3**, **CloudFront**, **Route 53**, **AWS Lambda**, **DynamoDB** and **API Gateway** with a focus on security, performance, and automation. The deployment process is fully automated using **GitHub Actions**, ensuring seamless updates with every code push.
