This has been my struggle. Being newer, I know larger cloud infrastructure well enough. But getting personal projects off the ground effectively has been difficult. I definitely need to get familiar with Vercel or Google cloud run.
From my experience, Amplify is great for UIs in general, but the GraphQL section has made me miserable more than once. And Beanstalk feels like CloudFormation "lite" for webapps. I do appreciate that Beanstalk leaves its architecture out in the open for you, but I've never found it to be much of a time saver.

You could try Elastic Beanstalk or AWS Amplify. They have a lot of recipes, and some that allow you to "just upload your code" and they do the rest.
