Overview

The Next.js AWS Lambda@Edge starter is a robust solution designed to streamline the development and deployment of serverless applications using AWS services. This starter kit leverages the aws-serverless-express-edge framework, making it easier to implement Express applications in a Lambda@Edge environment. With a focus on ease of use and flexibility, it allows developers to deploy applications efficiently while maintaining high performance.

The kit is especially beneficial for those looking to get started with serverless architecture in a cloud environment. It supports a modern development workflow with Hot Module Replacement (HMR) and simplifies deployment through Claudia. Although this is an initial version, it sets a strong foundation for building scalable serverless applications with detailed documentation expected soon.
