# Assume you are working on fantastic-function
mkvirtualenv fantastic-function
pip install LambdaTool
lambdatool new -sn fantastic-function

# Implement your function
cd fantastic-function

# Fill in the INI file with your account info
# If you have a default VPC most of the bits have been placed
# in config/config.ini. You will probably need to just supply
# an S3 bucket in which lambdatool can place artifacts.
vi config/config.ini

# Actually implement your idea
vi main.py # LambdaTool depends on the main file being called main.py
           # and that the the thing called lambda_handler remain 
           # called lambda_handler.

# Fill in all the modules needed by your function
vi requirements.txt

# I encourage the use of revision control
