About the technology

Serverless computing services like AWS Lambda and API Gateway can be tedious to set up, aren't designed to work well with JavaScript and Node, and most of the quirks and gotchas aren't well documented. Claudia doesn't alter your project layout or abstract away the core AWS services; it just makes it easier to get started with them!
