FaaS is a framework for building serverless functions on Docker Swarm Mode with first class metrics. Any UNIX process can be packaged as a function in FaaS enabling you to consume a range of web events without repetitive boiler-plate coding.
> It would help the project if you could **Star** the Github repository. This helps support the FaaS project which is free and Open Source Software.
### This is a Quickstart guide for the [FaaS functions as a Service](https://github.com/alexellis/faas/) project
> A Docker stack file with a number of sample functions is provided so that you can get up and running within minutes. You can also clone the code to hack on it or package your own functions.
