A couple significant callouts:
(1) "Behind the scenes, Now 2.0 works like an extensible build system and compiler, capable of transforming your sources into static files and serverless functions (lambdas) for production."
The demo is pretty slick. I've seen other frameworks, like Begin.com, where your lambdas are more explicit, but I'm curious to try this autogenerated approach.
(2) "The Now 2.0 platform features include:
A unified deployment type: All deployments are one type, regardless of static or dynamic parts
Massive build parallelization: Each deployment can kick off many concurrent serverless builds.
Monorepo support: Define API endpoints in Go, PHP, Node.js, Next.js, and such, in just one repository.
Zero-instruction builds: Our open-source builders take the build and cache config burden away.
Universal Cloud: Our platform leverages the best cloud infrastructure, with no lock-in or config.
With the following pricing improvements: Fully on-demand pricing, Per-100ms pricing for compute, Free seats for small teams
Including a better free-tier for our community."
It feels like all the Zeit features are coming together for a more complete offering. I love it.
- Rauchg 8y agoAuto-generation is a great way to put it. Cloud functions are an incredible primitive, but in our view, they constitute primarily a compilation target. Some small adjustments will be necessary when _importing_ large legacy codebases, but that's where using functions to also build your project comes in!
- playpause 8y agoCan you point to an example of using functions to build your project?
