Web based onboarding for GitLab Serverless
Problem to solve
Make it easy for people to get started with GitLab serverless by a fully guided onboarding experience.
Target audience
GitLab users that want to learn how to deploy serverless functions from GitLab.
Further details
AWS Lambda allows you to get your whole Lambda function configured and deployed entirely via a walkthrough in the web UI. I'm not sure if this is necessarily the best experience if it doesn't result in version controlled code but just code deployed to Lambda somewhere.
GitLab could take a hybrid approach where you are going through some web UI guided process but the result is basically all just code stored in a repo on GitLab.
It is very important that the result is all code stored in GitLab because this is key to setting people up with a long term solution rather than just trying something out quickly for a demo. We want to help get them all the way to DevOps with a few steps.
