examples
Serverless Examples – A collection of boilerplates and examples of serverless architectures built with the Serverless Framework on AWS Lambda, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Functions, and more. (by serverless)
> But two years from now CloudFlare could be doing the exact same stuff Amazon is doing now, and customers are locked in again, because no source code.
I hear this argument often but it always rings hollow.
A friend had a first gen iPod – when he wanted to switch, he discovered that the music he bought on iTunes couldn't be moved anywhere else because of DRM. That's lock in.
But this morning I was looking at the source code of an app built against the Serverless framework[1] and what I'm seeing is a bog standard WSGI application that uses a library to transform the inbound AWS "proprietary bits" into WSGI[2]. I'm not worried about lock-in there because all API Gateway + Lambda do is "translate an HTTP request into a JSON object and toss it to an app"[3] – what source code am I missing? The underlying Lambda/APIGW code? OK, but do I need it to run it myself? Not really.
Many – most? – AWS products tend towards this analysis. S3 is so locked in that, what, we now have multiple very high quality alternatives that are API compatible?
The real risk of cloud vendor lock in, from where I sit, comes from egregious pricing models that make it cheap to get data in & expensive to push data out. But I'm not sure Cloudflare has the juice to make this play work: egress pricing is essentially free money for AWS, so they've got lots of room to cut costs there – from what I've heard from people who negotiate real bills with AWS, they're very happy to give you discounts there.

formidable
The most used, flexible, fast and streaming parser for multipart form data. Supports uploading to serverless environments, AWS S3, Azure, GCP or the filesystem. Used in production.
Project mention: Best methods of processing file uploads (NodeJS)? | reddit.com/r/learnprogramming | 2021-09-26https://www.derpturkey.com/node-multipart-form-data-explained/ Here's a pretty in depth tutorial that explains the data, and how you can parse it using a third party library.

react-firebase-starter
Boilerplate (seed) project for creating web apps with React.js, GraphQL.js and Relay
GitHub

There are some great tools such as serverless offline, SAM local, and the architect framework, but I propose that we consider a different way forward - a cloud development environment.
-
serverless-express
Run Node.js web applications and APIs using existing application frameworks on AWS #serverless technologies such as Lambda, API Gateway, [email protected], and ALB.
The effort for using lambda depends on the framework that he’s using. For example for express server it only takes like 5 lines to make it work with Lambda. https://github.com/vendia/serverless-express

aws-serverless-workshops
Code and walkthrough labs to set up serverless applications for Wild Rydes workshops
Personally, the most time-efficient way to learn AWS services has been by taking some of the hands-on workshops like these: https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-serverless-workshops https://intro-to-analytics-on-aws.workshop.aws/en/

embark-framework
Framework for serverless Decentralized Applications using Ethereum, IPFS and other platforms
Embark has slightly more stars from the GitHub community than Hardhat, coming in at about 3.4k stars. It also comes with a UI dashboard that gives a survey of the processes Embark is working on for those interested in deploying to the web rather than a console.

aws-lambda-power-tuning
AWS Lambda Power Tuning is an open-source tool that can help you visualize and fine-tune the memory/power configuration of Lambda functions. It runs in your own AWS account - powered by AWS Step Functions - and it supports three optimization strategies: cost, speed, and balanced.
But the question is: how much memory does my Lambda function need? The range is quite large from 128 MB to 10.240 MB. There is an awesome open source tool called "Lambda Power Tuner" that helps you to determine your memory settings based on different strategies like speed, cost or balanced.

Project mention: Event loops and idle connections: why is my lambda not returning and then timing out? | dev.to | 2021-11-15
Actually, since we are wrapping all our handlers with Middy, we just went for another middleware to do that.

Ive used this professionally before form.io
-
Open Components - Although this one technically supports client-side composition, the registry piece requires more backend services. It also allows server-side rendering, and seems to be well-supported over time. Their documentation setup seemed similar to single-spa in simple complexity and succinct, easy-to-understand documentation.
