Why serverless? Serverless is the future! It is used by software developers at companies around the world and is only getting more popular. This is a valuable skill used directly in industry. This project serves as a great starting point. Once you have the basics down, you can go on to build bigger, more complicated applications. Plus, side projects are a great way to build your resume! If that isn’t enough reason, you’ll also have a chance to demo your own project and win cool prizes including a Nintendo Switch Lite, Amazon Echo, Headphones, and more!
