The Serverless Framework – Build applications comprised of microservices that run in response to events, auto-scale for you, and only charge you when they run. This lowers the total cost of maintaining your apps, enabling you to build more logic, faster.
The Framework uses new event-driven compute services, like AWS Lambda, Google CloudFunctions, and more. It's a command line tool, providing scaffolding, workflow automation and best practices for developing and deploying your serverless architecture. It's also completely extensible via plugins.
Serverless is an MIT open-source project, actively maintained by a full-time, venture-backed team. Get started quickly by watching the video guide here.
Enjoy! - Serverless, Inc.

Quick Start
Watch the video guide here or follow the steps below to create and deploy your first serverless microservice in minutes.
| Step | Command |Description|
|---|-------|------|
| 1. | npm install -g serverless@beta
| Install Serverless CLI |
| 2. | mkdir my-first-service && cd my-first-service
| Create the project directory |
| 3. | Create a default AWS profile, if you don't have one set locally | Connect Serverless with your provider |
| 4. | serverless create --template aws-nodejs
| Create an AWS Lamdba function in Node.js |
| 5. | serverless deploy
| Deploy to live AWS account |
| 6. | serverless invoke --function hello
| run the live API endpoint |
Run serverless remove
to clean up this function from your account.
