I’m trying to understand how the Server Side code is hosted on Monday. I believe it’s serverless but I can’t really find any place that confirms that. The examples I’ve seen are all using Express. So I’m not really sure what’s accurate. I could be missing something obvious. If anyone can point me to better examples that would be appreciated.

This was very helpful and got me to my answer.

I only do dev work a few times a year so I’m not always up to date on cloud tech. If anyone else was wondering the same thing Monday uses Google Run for the runtime layer which uses a serverless container system so can still run Express. Where as other serverless setups may not be able to.
