Skill instructions
Netlify Functions Modern Syntax Always use the modern default export + Config pattern. Never use the legacy exports.handler or named handler export. typescript import type { Context, Config } from "@netlify/functions"; export default async (req: Request, context: Context) = { return new Response("Hello, world!"); }; export const config: Config = { path: "/api/hello", }; The handler receives a standard Web API Request and returns a Response. The second argument is a Netlify Context object. File Structure Place functions in netlify/functions/: netlify/functions/ shared/ Non-function shared code (underscore prefix) auth.ts db.ts items.ts - /.netlify/functions/items (or custom path via config) users/index.ts - /.netlify/functions/users Use .ts or .mts extensions. If both .ts and .js exist with the same name, the .js file takes precedence. Path Routing Define custom paths via the config export: typescript export const config: Config = { path: "/api/items", // Static path // path: "/api/item
