Why this talk?

Because we have all met this guy

Because we have all been burned by a framework

Because nobody knows what the future will hold

Best practices when adopting frameworks (and this time, the serverless framework)

What are we building?

Memebot

• list all available meme templates
• search through existing meme templates
• create a meme using an existing template
• create a meme from a custom image url

Functionality

Memebot

• slack!
• issue commands using a /memebot slash command

Interface

Goal: Decouple our business logic from the serverless framework as much as possible
