@dabit3 @AWSAmplify @AWSSupport it would be nice to be able to support multiple Python functions in a single amplify project while keeping the amplify cli toolchain

github.com/aws-amplify/am…

In general the python support in the amplify cli is lacking and does bundle more than what you want via its usage of pipenv

github.com/aws-amplify/am…

Although the same could be said for JavaScript support bundling the dev dependencies in the lambda runtime creating bloat or workarounds (which actually makes things worse)

github.com/aws-amplify/am…

Amplify docs should maybe not recommend users go down the route of using "amplify add function" until the language specific issues are resolved

Not even lambda layers are fully supported if you run into this like this
github.com/aws-amplify/am…

In general people have come up with sensible ways of doing javascript function too
github.com/aws-amplify/am…

Regarding python AWS SAM works, maybe use this by default. Otherwise please at least try to implement a more significant example of amplify using multiple python functions and datasources etc..

@heitor_lessa can maybe also weight in on his experiences on why SAM was needed for all of the lambda function

Maybe @kaustavghosh22 can help look at this?
