Summary

Vercel has introduced Zero Config, a conventional and completely backwards-compatible approach to deployment for static websites and serverless functions powered by any language or framework. With Zero Config, users can create new projects using their preferred frontend stack and deploy them without writing vercel.json files. The platform optimizes frontend seamlessly and deploys it to its built-in Smart CDN, resulting in fast development, build, and serve times. Users can add the power of serverless functions to their site with minimal configuration, supported by existing languages mapped by file extension, including JavaScript, Go, and others.
