Cro: Elegant Reactive Services Built with Raku
Cro – elegant reactive services in Raku
I present Cro, a suite of libraries designed to build reactive distributed systems using the Raku language. Our high-level APIs simplify common tasks while the asynchronous pipeline handles complex challenges. Cro includes a robust HTTP server supporting HTTP/2 and Web Sockets, a flexible router, and powerful tooling like cro run for development and cro trace for debugging asynchronous flows.
The high level APIs make the easy things easy, and the asynchronous pipeline concept at Cro's heart makes the hard things possible.

"This tutorial walks through building a simple Single Page Application using Cro as the backend. For the frontend, we'll use webpack, ES6, React and Redux. "
Webpack? Who wants to build something with webpack these days?
(Criticism of React omitted for brevity)

Took me a while to remember that Raku is the "Perl 6" followon to the still-supported Perl 5, though it has morphed into a very different language.

ok, the only sensible way to use the word "elegant" in a sentence describing something related to Perl is a negation, as in "non elegant".
