The Serverless Framework – Build applications on AWS Lambda and other next-gen cloud services, that auto-scale and only charge you when they run. This lowers the total cost of running and operating your apps, enabling you to build more and manage less.

The Serverless Framework is a command-line tool that uses easy and approachable YAML syntax to deploy both your code and cloud infrastructure needed to make tons of serverless application use-cases. It's a multi-language framework that supports Node.js, Typescript, Python, Go, Java, and more. It's also completely extensible via over 1,000 plugins that can add more serverless use-cases and workflows to the Framework.

Actively maintained by Serverless Inc.

Quick Start

$3

``bash
npm install -g serverless
`

$3

The Serverless Framework deploys to your own AWS account. You'll need to enable Serverless Framework to deploy to your AWS account by giving it access. Here is a guide to help you set up your credentials securely

$3

A "Service" is the Framework's project or app concept. You can create one from scratch or select an existing template by running.

`bash
serverless
`

Go through the onboarding flow and then navigate into the newly created directory.

`bash
cd my-new-service
`

$3

Use this when you have made changes to your Functions, Events or Resources in serverless.yml or you simply want to deploy all changes within your Service at the same time.

`bash
serverless deploy
`

$3

Use this to quickly upload and overwrite your AWS Lambda code on AWS, allowing you to develop faster.

`bash
serverless deploy function -f hello
`

$3

Invokes an AWS Lambda Function on AWS and returns logs.

`bash
serverless invoke -f hello -l
`

$3

Invokes an AWS Lambda Function on your local machine and returns logs.

`bash
serverless invoke local -f hello -l
`

$3

Open up a separate tab in your console and stream all logs for a specific Function using this command.

`bash
serverless logs -f hello -t
`

$3

Removes all Functions, Events and Resources from your AWS account.

`bash
serverless remove
``
