Hi  
Is there a section in the documentation that explains what’s going on on the AWS console as the Hello World API is created? For example, there are a bunch of Lambdas that are created (i.e.: debug Lambdas) it will be nice to understand how many resources are created overall on the AWS side and what is their purpose. This can be useful for larger teams and for DevOps who spend some time in the AWS console … but also for a person who is just coming to SST and wanting to understand the mechanic.

Thanks

Yeah it’s not documented in the Hello World chapter but we have a doc on what the Live Lambda Dev environment does here: [Live Lambda Development | Serverless Stack (SST)](https://docs.serverless-stack.com/live-lambda-development)
