#13It seems dead? https://github.com/aws/chalice/issues/2067
As soon as you tried to do slightly more than was possible with it, it become unviable to manage all of the Lambdas and you end up having to use Terraform or similar anyway. If I were doing lots of new Lambdas today, I'd probably just use a third-party Terraform module for all of it.

#14Anyone here actually developing Python apps on AWS Lambda? If so do you use Serverless Framework or something else? I am part of a research project that is developing techniques for identifying security vulnerabilities in serverless apps so would be interested to understand what people are actually using for deployment and why.

We never considered using serverless or anything else because we also have ECS services, RDS databases, React frontends, and a lot more. It requires some knowhow to get a good setup, but it's hard to imagine anyone more opinionated framework doing what we want.

What a bizarre phenomenon. Per that article, the word chalice does mean chalice, but is treated as a swear word precisely because it doesn’t have any profane association and has sacred overtones? How then would one discuss these topics at all? Is this an attempt to wipe out all the words entirely?
1) Get rid of this urge to find any word is used as swear word in one of 100s languages used across the world. People who are looking to get offended will get offended with certainty.
2) Over time euphemisms become dysphemisms and vice versa. So if new words are added to swear word categories surely old ones are falling off that list. One can possibly keep track and use those.

#17But it's really just completely dead by now, which is a bummer as this leaves a large complexity gap between this and jumping ahead to just doing full Lambda+CDK/Serverless/Terraform setups.

CDK; don't love it, but it works.
Re: AWS Chalice
#20Maybe I am just incredibly jaded but I can't stand all these shortcut frameworks. It just ends up locking you into an ecosystem, especially AWS, and decouples you from building technical understanding of the system where if you go down the path long enough, you have no abort button besides an entire re-build because your code is enmeshed with the framework.
Do it right the first time: build it simple & iterate as you go. You don't need to be thinking about scaling to 1M concurrent users when you have 0 users.
