## What it is
The CNCF Serverless Working Group repository, which coordinates CNCF activities around serverless and cloud native technology. It hosts the Serverless Overview Whitepaper, the serverless landscape, and spawned sub-projects like CloudEvents and Serverless Workflow.

## Use cases
- learn about serverless and cloud native technology
- find the CNCF serverless whitepaper
- browse the serverless tooling landscape

- understand FaaS ecosystem categories

## When to choose
- you want authoritative educational material on serverless in cloud native contexts
- you are evaluating the serverless ecosystem and want a curated landscape
- you want to participate in CNCF serverless standardization efforts

## When to avoid
- you need runnable serverless software or a framework
- you want a specific FaaS platform implementation rather than reference material

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: documentation, developer-tools
- domain: cloud-computing, developer-tools, awesome-lists
- platform: cloud, self-hosted
- tags: serverless, cncf, working-group, whitepaper, landscape, community
