Hi! My Name is Kartik and I am a Self-taught Full-stack developer working in big tech consulting company. I love breaking the stuff with coding and finding new things that make development easy!
Yes, you are right
Regarding the CDN what's the harm in using that, its still future proof even if there are lakhs of visitor suddenly.
Being a developer AWS just routine stuff when comes to day to day coding so ya it might intimidate someone who is really a beginner so i guess that was the reason i might have opted for Jekyll because deployment using markdown is painless
The harm is cost. CDNs don’t come free - whether it is Cloudfront, Cloudflare, or Fastly. It also requires configuration. I thought we were talking about building a blog? I don’t know of too many that get slammed with traffic. I think my GitHub pages hosted blog could handle massive load given that it’s hosted on GH infrastructure. Right? I’ll move it to AWS if it falls over. Not likely though.
Hmm. AWS is not painless. Some things are easier than others. I’ve used quite a number of their services — EC2, Beanstalk, RDS, S3, Cloudfront. I also have my own apps and I still much prefer to deploy to Heroku or Render. As a dev, I much prefer to spend time writing the application code for the feature that I plan to accomplish than muck around in the infrastructure needed to let my application run. Why make it hard for myself having to jump through hoops? I’m not saying it’s hard. It’s kind of like why type “git —help” when you can just type “git -h”. Both yield the same result, but one requires more typing.

Heroku is amazing stuff... pricing is something that I don't use it often.
Other than that i don't like to leave AWS because why spread the things elsewhere when you can just keep it at one place
also when it comes to the pricing of CDN its negligible, to be honest, and if you are getting charged on AWS cloudfront then your site is actually doing wonders
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
