The AWS CodeStar team recently announced the addition of two ASP.NET Core project templates.

This blog contains details on usage of this utility class along with sample code. Specifying AmazonCloudFrontCookieSigner.Protocols.Https as the protocol parameter creates a cookie with incorrect policy; the policy contains a resource restriction of […]
