# AWS AmplifyDeploy Thulite to AWS Amplify with Git-based continuous deployment, custom amplify.yml settings, and correct build output from the public folder.

Use AWS Amplify to deploy your Thulite site from a Git repository.

This project builds with `npm run build` and publishes the generated `public/` directory.

## How to deploy

{{< steps >}}
{{< step >}}
Push your project to GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket.

{{< step >}}

{{< step >}}

{{< /step >}}
{{< step >}}

{{< /step >}}
{{< /steps >}}

## Example `amplify.yml`

```yml {title="amplify.yml"}
version: 1
frontend:
  phases:
    preBuild:
      commands:
        - npm ci
    build:
      commands:
        - npm run build
  artifacts:
    baseDirectory: public
    files:
      - "**/*"
```

Amplify reads this file during deployment instead of relying on guessed defaults.

## Notes

- Thulite requires Node.js `24.13.0` or later
- If you need specific Hugo tooling versions, define them in Amplify environment settings or expand `amplify.yml`
- Each push to the connected branch triggers a new deploy
