GatsbyJS: How to Build & Deploy a Gatsby Site to AWS with GitHub Actions

In this video, I go over the basic steps for implementing a simple automated build and deployment process using GitHub Actions. As a starting point, I have an out of the box Gatsby site that I created using the gatsby new command. During the video I'll go over how to setup the AWS credentials and go over how to add the GitHub action to our repo that will automatically build our application, deploy the build output to our S3 bucket and then clear the Cloudfront cache every time we push a change to our master branch. If you want to follow along with today's video, you'll want to make sure you watch my first video in the series on setting up the infrastructure in AWS before continuing.
