LoopBack is a Node.js API framework that enables you to create APIs quickly that interact with backend resources like databases and services.

LoopBack 4, the next generation of LoopBack, includes:

• A brand new core rewritten in TypeScript that makes this framework simpler to use and easier to extend than ever
• Support for OpenAPI for comprehensive bottom-up and top-down REST API experience
• Enablement of instant GraphQL endpoints from REST APIs

In this lab, you will create a todo-list application that tracks to-do items using an in-memory database. You will experience how you can create REST APIs with just 5 steps:

NYC/DEV Serverless event - January 8

Let's work through what Serverless is, why you would want to use it, how it works and how to get started. We'll spend some time with a few example use cases to flesh out some implementations so you can feel confident building out your own serverless applications.

Add this to your .profile (or whatever)

# convert files in directory from m4a to mp3
function m4a() {
  find . -iname '*.m4a' -exec bash -c 'ffmpeg -i "$1" "${1/m4a/mp3}"' -- {} \;
}

Building Serverless Applications on the Apache OpenWhisk Platform

Description

Apache OpenWhisk on IBM Bluemix provides a powerful and flexible environment for deploying cloud-native applications driven by data, message, and API call events. Learn why serverless architectures are attractive for many emerging cloud workloads and when you should consider OpenWhisk for your next project. Then get started on Bluemix with three sample applications covering how the OpenWhisk programming model enables you both to implement REST APIs and process non-HTTP events at scale.
