CDK Construct for making local files publicly available
- Specify a path to a local folder that contains files
- FilePublisher creates an S3 bucket and uploads all the files to the bucket
- FilePublisher creates a CloudFront distribution and set the bucket as its origin via Origin Access Identity (OAI)
- You can access the files via CloudFront as the S3 bucket remains private
