Just wanted to say, I have had to gone through this process over a dozen times and I always come back to this video and the nginx set up. Your awesome. Thank you!

There are tutorial videos, and then there's this tutorial video, which is a tutorial video about deploying Node on an AWS EC2 instance. Great work!

[clinto_abraham]

This makes sense now. Was always trying to create EC2 but stuck at terminal termination, app used to stop always. Thanks man!

Hi Sam, great stuff. I've decided to ween myself off of beanstalk and find your videos to be concise, informative, and easy to follow. Thank you!!

Thanks bro! I solved a problem about ec2 I was facing thanks to your video (I forgot to add TCP port rule to security groups) Keep making such good content!!!

Hey, welcome to come back again, after 5 months. Nice to see this video, since I have developed a Nodejs app (TDD with using jest and superset inspiring your tutorials), I was thinking how to deploy and where, and see this video. Very happy.

[lawais]

nice video! it worked perfectly! I have 2 questions though...

1. Why didnt you use CodeDeploy?
2. How would you integrate this method in a pipeline?

[brunohlnp]

I reproduce the results of your video. I am not able to use the systemd command to turn the web app into a always-up service. In fact, after starting the pulled repository content (which goes fine hosted locally), its status is (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE). Do you have some idea how to debug this issue?
