It wraps CloudFront's API to let you configure content delivery from S3 buckets, load balancers, or custom HTTP origins, set up domain names and SSL certificates, define multiple behaviors with different routing rules, and manage cache settings\u2014all as infrastructure-as-code rather than through the AWS console.\n\nThe package depends on 14 other AWS CDK modules (IAM, S3, Lambda, KMS, EC2, and others) plus core CDK infrastructure libraries. It is actively maintained in the AWS CDK repository but is part of CDK v1, which reached end-of-support on 2023-06-01. AWS recommends migrating to CDK v2 for new projects.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are maintaining or extending an existing AWS CDK v1 codebase. No, if you are starting a new project\u2014use AWS CDK v2 instead. The package is stable and well-maintained within the active CDK repository, but v1 itself is end-of-support and will not receive updates; migration to v2 is the recommended path forward."},"id":"aws-cdk-aws-cloudfront","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-cdk-aws-cloudfront","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aws-cdk-aws-cloudfront.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aws-cdk-aws-cloudfront/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-06-19","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aws-cdk.aws-cloudfront","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"The CDK Construct Library for AWS::CloudFront"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":156811,"position":10774,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.204.0"}
