aws is always better when you want to do autoscaling or serverless environment. however it is not suitable for small application to start with.

Had this issue as well. To experiment / quick test, felt Heroku is painless and more time to concentrate on the build itself.

Heroku was the first cloud deployment software I used to deploy a simple PHP application! Heroku is definitely easier to deploy for small applications. But if you want to scale, Setting up AWS instances and pipelines are much more organized!

AWS Amplify & AWS Beanstalk are worth exploring.
