S3 static hosting link doesn't work while the object url works, static hosting page is an empty page

Hey, I have used S3 hosting for React + Tailwind applications many times.

One issue that I've encountered in the past is the domain name. You need to attach a domain to the S3 bucket or else the relative paths will be problematic.

My general path for React + S3 Hosting is the following.

1. S3 bucket (but change the bucket name to the name of the domain to be used. This could be part of what's causing headache. It's also a good practice)
2. CloudFront distribution (you'll want SSL & just makes life easier for these types of projects)
3. Point Domain DNS to CloudFront distribution via Route53 or whatever DNS provider you use.

This should get you a React + Tailwind app up fairly easily

BUCKET POLICY You can go to the following URL and this section if you want to only allow access to the files through domain & cloudfront. Look for title "Example S3 bucket policy that allows read-only access to a CloudFront OAC" https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/private-content-restricting-access-to-s3.html
