Blip

What is Blip?

Blip is a web deployment tool that uses AWS CDK to synthisize a cloudformation template capable of deploying a static website to AWS. It uses AWS CloudFront, S3, and Route53 to deploy a static website to AWS. It also uses AWS Certificate Manager to create a certificate for the domain name. Blip is a work in progress and is not ready for production use.
