    Not sure why this is downvoted, Fastify is quite popular and the 'generator for everything' approach of Koa didn't really take off.

    Architect serverless (https://arc.codes) is pretty good for serverless.

    Architect is a heavily opinionated framework for building FWA's, Functional Web Apps. It uses AWS SAM under the hood but provides a layer on top with simplified abstractions that lets developers define and use AWS infrastructure without necessarily knowing what service is backing their "events" construct.

    I work for vercel but I highly recommend a host like us because we make it a lot easier to manage a lambda environment and being a lot more to the table (cdn, edge functions, etc). If you want to go your own I really like architect https://arc.codes too. It really depends on your traffic and application patterns but cold starts can be virtually nil.

    For us at Begin and Architect, tape has been in use for several years. tape has a stable and straightforward API, routine maintenance updates, and outputs TAP, making it really versatile. While TAP is legible, it's not the most human-readable format. Fortunately, several TAP reporters can help display results for developers. Until recently, Begin's TAP reporter of choice was tap-spec. Sadly tap-spec wasn't kept up to date and npm began reporting vulnerabilities.

    Instead, let’s leverage the power and scale of AWS with the ease of Architect and Begin. Without managing AWS projects, IAM roles, or connecting EventBridge to a series of Lambdas.

    I would start with separating the frontend and backend, as some others have suggested. I would probably use react but could try svelte or vue also. In the start you can mock the backend or have a memory-kept version of it.

    For backend (the api) I would go for c# or nodejs (maybe with nextjs). I might combine this with a serverless solution like Architect.

    SAM support for TypeScript has been lagging for some time, but a pull request was just merged that should change that. It looks like we'll be able to add an aws_sam key in the package.json file to enable building within the SAM engine as part of sam build. Although this PR has been merged to aws-lambda-builders, the engine behind sam build, it will still need to be added to aws-sam-cli and released (to much fanfare, one expects) before it can be used with SAM.
