Hi Vince. Thanks for humoring my basic questions. I was hambugged by the vi editor. Got it now. Website displaying Hello World.
The aws configure --profile command was also helpful, as outlined in this AWS guide: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-configure-quickstart.html Will report back when I get stuck. Stay tuned. On Thursday, October 14, 2021 at 2:07:41 PM UTC-6 vince wrote: > 1.
