Hi, as a solo developer, I often need to save data through serverless functions. I'm not looking to set up and pay for a database, nor do I want to install an SDK and use NoSQL cloud services, especially for straightforward use cases like for ex "cron" scripts. I was searching for a simple and direct API call.

The concept of 'storing a map as JSON' in a serverless context usually translates to saving or reading a file in a bucket, like S3 or GCS, but then again, this brings us back to waste time installing and managing an SDK.

Got your point, and for larger projects, a more structured approach definitely makes sense. However, I often find myself needing something like this, so I went ahead and built it.
