Main Goal
There is no better way to learn a new technology than with gamification. And we're here to help you learn Serverless once and for all with 25 daily challenges: 25 days of Serverless! Come join!
Rules
-
Solve each coding challenge in the first 25 days of December.
-
Tweet your progress during the challenge period using the hashtag #25DaysOfServerless.
-
Submit the code of your solution as a PR to this repository before the sample solution gets published (usually 24h after the challenge is published).
-
You may get picked for a mention during our weekly wrap-up video. If you submit a PR you agree that we mention your name and/or nicknames (GitHub, Twitter) publicly in the context of 25 Days of Serverless.
