 Each of these steps is covered in more detail below.
 
 ### Prerequisites
-
-Make sure you've got all your API keys and environment variables set up before you deploy. 
+#### AWS S3 CORS configuration
+If you're storing files in AWS S3, ensure you've listed your production domain
+in the bucket's CORS configuration under `AllowedOrigins`. Check the [File
+uploading guide](/guides/file-uploading/#change-the-cors-settings) for details.
 
 #### Env Vars
+Make sure you've got all your API keys and environment variables set up before you deploy.
 ##### Payment Processor Vars
 In the [Payments Processor integration guide](/guides/payments-integration/), you set up your API keys using test keys and test product ids. You'll need to get the live/production versions of those keys. To get these, repeat the instructions in the [Integration Guide](/guides/payments-integration/) without being in test mode. Add the new keys to your deployed environment secrets.

 Once you are logged in with your IAM user, you'll need to create an S3 bucket to store your files.
 
 1. Navigate to the S3 service in the AWS console
-<Image src={findS3} alt="find s3" loading="lazy" />
+    <Image src={findS3} alt="find s3" loading="lazy" />
 2. Click on the `Create bucket` button
-<Image src={createBucket} alt="create bucket" loading="lazy" />
+    <Image src={createBucket} alt="create bucket" loading="lazy" />
 3. Fill in the bucket name and region
 4. **Leave all the settings as default** and click `Create bucket`

 ### Change the CORS settings
 
 Now we need to change some permissions on the bucket to allow for file uploads from your app.
 
 1. Click on the bucket you just created
-<Image src={newBucket} alt="new bucket" loading="lazy" />
+    <Image src={newBucket} alt="new bucket" loading="lazy" />
 2. Click on the `Permissions` tab
-<Image src={permissions} alt="permissions" loading="lazy" />

 3. Scroll down to the `Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS)` section and click `Edit`
-<Image src={cors} alt="cors" loading="lazy" />
-5. Paste the following CORS configuration and click `Save changes`:
-```json
-[
+    <Image src={cors} alt="cors" loading="lazy" />
+5. Insert the correct CORS configuration and click `Save changes`. You can
+   copy-paste most of the config below, but **you must edit the
+   `AllowedOrigins` field** to fit your app. Include `http://localhost:3000` for
+   local development, and `https://<your domain>` for production.
+
+   If you don't yet have a domain name, just list `http://localhost:3000` for
+   now. We'll remind you to add your domain before deploying to production in
+   the [Deployment docs](/guides/deploying/#aws-s3-cors-configuration).

 ### Get your AWS S3 credentials
 
 Now that you have your S3 bucket set up, you'll need to get your S3 credentials to use in your app.
 
 1. Click on your username in the top right corner of the AWS console and select `Security Credentials`
-<Image src={username} alt="username" loading="lazy" />
+    <Image src={username} alt="username" loading="lazy" />
 2. Scroll down to the `Access keys` section

-<Image src={keys} alt="keys" loading="lazy" />
+    <Image src={keys} alt="keys" loading="lazy" />
 5. Copy the `Access key ID` and `Secret access key` and paste them in your `src/app/.env.server` file:
