Build Nodejs APIs using Serverless
The document outlines the use of Node.js for building serverless APIs, highlighting its scalability, cost-effectiveness, and event-driven nature. It provides guidance on various project-related tasks such as creating a project, debugging locally, connecting to MongoDB, and deploying to the cloud, while also discussing the advantages of Node.js and its ecosystem. Additionally, it lists serverless providers like Azure Functions and Amazon Lambda, along with links to resources for further learning.

Editor's Notes
- #3 I want you to think about twitter for a second. Think about Twitter scale.
- #4 330 million users in total, 6k tweets/second, 350k tweets
- #5 Now I want you to think about what if the twitter creators would have been paralysed by how to scale that they didn’t even begin!
- #6 That’s me on every single startup idea I’ve ever had. Which is why I love seervelress so much. Becas it handles th eissues of scaling leading me to building the next twitter! I knew how to make an api with express but I didn’t know how to build an api with servers and that’s what we’re going to talk about today. And that’s the topic of today’s talk? https://www.istockphoto.com/photo/three-young-nerds-with-thinking-caps-gm678860582-125092811
- #8 Serverless computing is the abstraction of servers, infrastructure, and operating systems. When you build serverless apps you don’t need to provision and manage any servers, so you can take your mind off infrastructure concerns. Serverless computing is driven by the reaction to events and triggers happening in near-real-time—in the cloud. As a fully managed service, server management and capacity planning are invisible to the developer and billing is based just on resources consumed or the actual time your code is running.

- #16 And the way this talk is structured is a series of I don’t knows, things that I know how to do when using express but had to learn with serverless. And some of them might be exactly how you expected it to, but we still need to go through the effort of understanding them.
- #19 So here we have an angular app that’s connecting to an express backend. And what we can do is Create new puppies, list exsiting ones, edit puppis and delete them. So basically the typical CRUD operations. And the goal is to take this app and instead of connecting to an express back end we should insteab be able to call serverless endpoints.

- #24 Once we have the extension installed we can go ahead and create a new function on our computer. First thing that will be created is a function app that allows us to group together functions with similar functionality and also configure settings that will apply to all functions within the same functionapp. To create a new function app we need to Click this folder icon on our extension, choose the language that we want to use. Once that’s done a vscode folder will be generated for us which will include the debuggging cofnig for us. Another important file that’s being generated is the local.settings.json file. This is where we’ll store our secrets, our environment variables. Stop looping
- #26 This will generate a few files for us so let’s see what each of them does. The function.json file defines the function bindings and other configuration settings. The runtime uses this file to determine the events to monitor and how to pass data into and return data from function execution. The index.js file is where our functions’ code lives. Sample.dat contains test data.
- #27 All files are stored inside a folder named just like our function
