lambda

Zig on AWS Lambda — under construction. The course module covers:

1. The Lambda custom runtime contract (/runtime/invocation/next, /runtime/invocation/{id}/response)
2. Cross-compiling a static Zig binary to x86_64-linux-musl with one zig build-exe flag — no Docker buildx, no toolchain install
3. Packaging the binary as bootstrap inside a function.zip
4. Cold-start, binary size, and cost compared to cargo lambda on the same workload

The expected punchline: a Zig handler is roughly the size of a single PNG and starts in low single-digit milliseconds.
