Interesting read, but I think it exemplifies some of the problems people currently have with Serverless development. For the main population of people here on HN that have experience with deploying applications, this will seem like a lot of learning and effort to recreate an already positive experience they with whatever framework/setup they currently use to build applications. For new developers, it is now a mountain of tools and services they must learn, which takes away one of the selling points of Serverless as an easy paradigm to learn and start building apps on (hence the selling point of not needing to worry about how to setup servers).

With all that said, I am working on building a framework that I would describe to the crowd here as Django for Serverless. It is in early stages but you can check it out at https://staging.cdevframework.io/. One of the main focuses is to make it easier to write code that is not dependent on running on a Functions as a Service (FaaS) model, so that your code can eventually be bundled up and deployed on a traditional server when a FaaS platform becomes uneconomical.
