Hey Magnus, good question.

We can create api in serverless without using express. But express is so powerful and creating api with express is so much simpler.

Lots of node developers are expert in express.

Hey, thank you for your article !
I'm also a bit confused with express. Does the express server starts everytime we receive a call ? Or is there something done with module.exports.handler = serverless(app) that does something that I don't understand yet ?
