Using Finch to run Apache Airflow using mwaa-local-runner
I was getting hundreds of permissions errors. Oh no, I knew this was going too well. Looking at the current issues within the Finch GitHub repo, I found an issue that I thought would help resolve this problem. Looking at this I created a new docker-compose file to take into consideration some of the comments, as well as adding a new step.

You can also try finch from AWS which combines a similar stack

I work at AWS and helped with testing finch during development

Serious Question: why use Docker Desktop? (from a Linux user)
I've not used this myself, but they are pushing this at work instead of having to pay for Docker Desktop - Check out Finch - OpenSource

Forget Azure SQL Edge on a M1 Mac—Run full-blown SQL Server Linux instead (a how-to)
Lima is still quite new and I am even newer to it so bear in mind that there may be better ways to wield this weapon. There is also a lot of development in this space with the likes of Finch, Multipass and others offering potential alternatives or simplifications to this approach so watch this space!

Scala opensource projects
There's the Li Haoyi's ecosystem of tools and libraries that's fun to hack on, has a low entry-bar (with a design philosophy of using the least complex abstractions for the job), and has few libs like requests and cask that may appeal to those liking some python minimalism. That's not the fastest way to learn hardcore FP, that's not the worst either.

Scala Toolkit makes Scala powerful straight out of the box
Another thing that caught my attention is the choice for HTTP client. If the authors wanted to go with the simplest thing, they could have picked requests-scala (from the com-lihaoyi family of libraries). If they wanted to go with full blown Scala FP, they could have chosen http4s client (Ember). Sttp awkwardly sits in the middle being neither.

Scala vs Java/C# code examples
Finally, to give you an example of how simple Scala can be when you get rid of all the fancy stuff, take a look at the examples in Li Haoyi's requests-scala library, a port of the excellent requests Python library. I challenge anyone to call that code complex.

Every time I sit down to use an HTTP client and JSON parser, I get really frustrated
http4s (either with Blaze or Ember) is great, but you may need to think a bit about what you're doing. Maybe https://github.com/com-lihaoyi/requests-scala will be the best choice for your particular situation?
What are some alternatives?
Fintrospect - Implement fast, type-safe HTTP webservices for Finagle
Akka HTTP - The Streaming-first HTTP server/module of Akka
Http4s - A minimal, idiomatic Scala interface for HTTP
Finch.io - Scala combinator library for building Finagle HTTP services
Scalaxb - scalaxb is an XML data binding tool for Scala.
jefe - Manages installation, updating, downloading, launching, error reporting, and more for your application.
Spray - A suite of scala libraries for building and consuming RESTful web services on top of Akka: lightweight, asynchronous, non-blocking, actor-based, testable
sttp - The Scala HTTP client you always wanted!
todo-http4s-doobie - A sample project of a microservice using http4s, doobie, and circe.
featherbed - Asynchronous Scala HTTP client using Finagle, Shapeless and Cats
