Understanding the code

This starter is intentionally lightweight, and only requires the @fastly/js-compute and @fastly/expressly npm packages.

The starter doesn't require the use of any backends. Once deployed, you will have a Fastly service running on Compute that can generate synthetic responses at the edge.

Next steps

Starters are a good way to bootstrap a project. For more specific use cases, and answers to common problems, try our library of code examples.
