AWS codebuild can be configured with buildspec.yml file present in Repo by connecting with the git hub repo url to codebuild
Codebuild will build the code and generate docker images and push the images to ECR
Continuous Delivery is achieved through ALB. Create an ALB and do necessary configuration and application can be accessed via ALB URL.
