Does anyone else finds AWS and other Amazon services overly complicated?

  Publish a simple, cheap, CDN backed, static website using a single AWS CloudFormation script

I created a CloudFormation script specifically to do this (including CloudFront for CDN). Yes, there's reasonable complexity, but it's a trade-off of security and configuration. As others noted, the documentation is good, and this took me a weekend to write including learning CloudFormation from scratch.

  A CLI to create code sandboxes with automatic HTTPS and long running processes in your cloud provider account (by eleven-sh)

  

Same sentiment here.

Shameless plug but, as a side-project, I'm working on an open-source CLI to abstract away the complexity of deploying simple things on cloud providers.

If anyone wants to contribute.
