If you have an S3 bucket configured to host a static website and you want users to access this website via a domain (hosted zone) you have procured in Route53, it's pretty straightforward. HOWEVER, if you want that website to be accessible over SSL, it gets way more complicated and have to correctly integrate 4 different AWS services!
S3 — for storing the static site
CloudFront — for serving the static site over SSL
AWS Certificate Manager — for generating the SSL certificates
Route53 — for routing the domain name to the correct location
It's way more difficult than I initially thought and it took much longer than expected to get it working.
