Writing a Database backed Micro-service with Raku and Humming-Bird
To begin, you'll want to make sure that you have Raku installed, I recommend using Rakubrew. Then we'll want to install Zef, if you're new to Raku, Zef is basically just NPM or CPAN for Raku, it's written by the fabulous Ugexe and is the default package manager people use with Raku.
