This is a plugin for the Serverless framework that adds support for associating a Lambda function with a CloudFront distribution to take advantage of the Lambda@Edge features of CloudFront. Even though CloudFormation added support for Lambda@Edge via its LambdaFunctionAssociations config object, it would be difficult to define a CloudFront distribution in your serverless.yml file's resources that links to one of the functions that you're deploying with Serverless. Why? Because the LambdaFunctionAssociations array needs a reference to the Lambda function's version (AWS::Lambda::Version resource), not just the function itself. (The documentation for CloudFormation says "You must specify the ARN of a function version; you can't specify a Lambda alias or $LATEST."). Serverless creates the version automatically for you, but the logical ID for it is seemingly random. You'd need that logical ID to use a Ref in your CloudFormation template for the function association. This plugin hides all that for you - it uses other features in Serverless to be able to programmatically determine the function's logical ID and build the reference for you in the LambdaFunctionAssociations object. It directly modifies your CloudFormation template before the stack is ever deployed, so that CloudFormation does the heavy lifting for you. This 2.0 version of the plugin is thus much faster and easier to use than the 1.0 version (which existed before CloudFormation supported Lambda@Edge).
