Creating a new service

serverless create --template aws-nodejs

This example will generate scaffolding for a service with AWS as a provider and nodejs as runtime. The scaffolding will be generated in the current working directory.

Your new service will have a default stage called dev and a default region inside that stage called us-east-1. The provider which is used for deployment later on is AWS (Amazon web services).
