Shared workspace storage with Gitpod: Sync a directory to Amazon S3 using s3fs

This guide explains how to set up and automate the mounting of a directory in a Gitpod workspace so that files are automatically synced with an Amazon S3 bucket using "s3fs". The process involves installing AWS CLI and s3fs, authenticating with S3, creating an S3 bucket, creating a directory and linking it to S3, and automating access to AWS S3. By following these steps, users can create shared storage across workspaces where files added, deleted or renamed in the shared directory sync automatically to S3 for access by other team members.
