What's the differences between this and `cargo-lambda`? #114

Looks the serverless-rust can deploy lambda to cloud. But CDK can deploy lambda too. Any other differences?

This predated most of what you see today. It is a serverless framework plugin for building and packaging and deploying rust based lambdas. It integrates with that ecosystem

the difference is this integrates directly a tool organizations are likely already using which allows for incremental adoption of rust without a switching cost. That was the original idea at least. You may have other lambdas that are not rust that you can incrementally experiment with trying rust.

this plugin is likely less maintained than the cargo plugin due to a few factors.
