One of the auto generated microservices backend/documentation/playground/sample code all in one sweet pa(cka)ge.

I'm proud of it because it's completely scripted, I can generate/deploy any CRUD Restful microservice in under a minute, it's Lambda powered and multi-tenant cloud-hosted. A mouthful of buzzwords :)

Once I got tired of that I started to look into Vagrant, which recommended using a tool like Puppet or Chef. That le…
