In this section you will set up the Serverless Framework for AWS. This involves several steps, including installing the Serverless Framework, configuring AWS credentials, and creating a new Serverless service.

Installation

Start by installing Node.js version 18.20.3 or greater and npm (Node Package Manager). You can download and install them from the official Node.js website .

Then, open the terminal or command prompt and type the following:

    

        
        
npm install -g serverless

AWS Credentials

You need AWS credentials to deploy your Serverless application to AWS. You can create these credentials in the AWS Management Console by following these instructions:

  1. Create IAM User:
  • Go to the IAM console .
  • Create a new user with programmatic access and attach the AdministratorAccess policy.
  1. Configure Credentials:
  • Use the AWS CLI to configure your credentials. If you don’t have the AWS CLI installed, follow these installation instructions .

Run the following command to configure your credentials:

Enter your Access Key ID, Secret Access Key, and region. You can use a default value for the output.
