Using zip based functions in Netlify

HTML

Netlify function zips

Create a functions folder
```
mkdir functions
```
Create a sub folder with a function and a package.json file with its dependancies

The function (right now) needs to have the same name as the folder that contains it.

Like so: /functions/one/one.js
```
/functions
  /one
    one.js <-- function code
    package.json <-- function dependencies
```

Configure your build directory for functions in netlify.toml

# netlify.toml file
[build]
command = "npm run build"
publish = "build" # <-- Frontend build dir
functions = "functions-build" # <-- Functions build dir

During your build, Zip up the function and dependancies and place in functions dist folder functions-build

Future Plans

We are working on streamlining the zips based function flow with a single CLI command!
