Steps to create the Lambda Function

1. Build the project by running npm run build-ts.
2. Rename the name in package.json to give a name to your lambda function.
3. Run npm run prepateToDeployLambda to prepare the project to deploy to lambda.
4. Run npm run create-lambda-func to create the lambda function.
5. Run npm run update-lambda atleast once after creating lambda function.(Basically it will update the lambda function).

That's it. Your first serverless function is up now.

And to update the lambda function repeat the step 5.

Note: Use lambda.env.json file for production environment variables

Easy right 😊. Happy Coding 💻
