crowbar is really cool, but there are some other really cool projects that solve similar problems. Arguably, rust-aws-lambda, despite its worse name, solves the problem better by merit of coming into existence after lambda added go support.

At the very least it seems like a good idea to let users know of the alternatives.

If you'd rather me word it differently or create a crowbar-biased comparison, I'd be happy to.

I'm marking this "WIP" for the moment since it seems more data is needed to figure out the best way to word this. I'll do a bit more digging and then take another swing at drafting an alternatives section.

@softprops Since you commented on the previous revision, does this now look like something you'd want to see merged?

I reached out to the rust lambda folks who have now started actually measuring things ;) and removed its previous claims. I feel better I about this now.

Building crowbar crates is a solved problem for me now. What's left is implementation details that leak through that itself may have a remedy on the way https://github.com/ilianaw/rust-crowbar/pull/46
