Brad Traversy sent me here, Dave. I enjoyed learning about using serverless functions which are new to me. Looking forward to seeing project based tutorials from you in the future.

I didn't get the idea behind the serverless before since we still need to create server functions and I didn't find anyone do it the way you did by creating it locally then convert it to a nodejs and finally upload it to a serverless server

Thanks and I hope you can make a dedicated series on serverless functions

I started to learn JS recently. Made a small website in 3 languages(English, Italian, Ukrainian) on netlify, but the problem is that I duplicated pages for every language, was looking for a solution, for example to keep translation in JSON. But I see to use serverless functions I need to know backend as well?
