deploying to ubuntu instance on aws from windows

I want to deploy a python project to ubuntu instance on aws from a windows operating system, but all tutorials I have encountered either use ubuntu or mac as their development/local machine.

Is the deployment from windows the same i.e. after createing the instance all I would then be doing from the local windows system would be running inside the ubuntu instance?

is there any tutorial which can help me achieve my objective?

Note i am deploying directly without git. ANy help would be appreciated

Your best bet is going to be installing WSL(Windows Subsystem for Linux) and using that to run bash commands. This will make your life a whole lot easier as you won't have to look for Windows specific tutorials and you can now follow Ubuntu/Linux tutorials.

What is WSL? It is essentially a Linux VM built into Windows. It will provide you with a terminal running Ubuntu or pretty much any other Linux distro you could want.

To transfer files to an ubuntu instance you could use SSH, from windows you could download an SSH client such as Mobaxterm (https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/)! or download Windows Subsystem for Linux (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10)! then use SCP to copy files (https://www.computerhope.com/unix/scp.htm)!. Both options require that you have the .pem security file for your instance
