Cloud Portfolio Platform

Personal portfolio built on AWS — React SPA on CloudFront + S3, fully serverless backend via API Gateway and Lambda, DynamoDB for persistence, SES for email. All infrastructure managed with Terraform.

Live: portfolio.alessandro-bezerra.me

Stack

Frontend: React 19 + TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind CSS v4, Framer Motion, EN/PT i18n

Backend (Lambda / Node.js 20): visitor counter, contact form, content CMS, resume upload, video showcase, infra status

AWS: S3, CloudFront (dual-origin: S3 + API GW), API Gateway HTTP API, Lambda, DynamoDB, SES, SSM, Route 53, ACM

Structure

frontend/   # React SPA
backend/    # Lambda functions (one per route)
infra/      # Terraform (all resources)

Running locally

cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev   # http://localhost:5173

Without VITE_API_BASE_URL set, all API calls return safe fallbacks.

Deploy

Push to production branch → GitHub Actions builds + syncs to S3 + invalidates CloudFront.
