Shipping My First Raku App: behave.dev
I just released behave.dev into production. It's the homepage for
BDD::Behave, my behavior-driven testing framework for
Raku. It's the first Raku application I've ever pushed to production. I've been deploying web apps since
1996, so the moving parts of putting a process behind a reverse proxy on a Linux box are familiar
territory. What I had to figure out this time was where the Raku-shaped pieces
slot into that picture, and which of my usual configuration patterns transfered cleanly.

Using Linux for your first time can be very exciting. You suddenly gain access to a wealth of customization options, all the free
and open-source software you could ever want or need, and access to a strong community of (sometimes overly-)enthusiastic Linux users. But
before you dive headfirst into this new world, there's an important consideration I'd like to advise you on. It boils down to this: don't
"switch to Linux" on your one and only computer. Don't dual-boot it and don't bother with getting a second hard drive. In
essence, do not touch your current working computer, no matter what operating system it's running. Leave it fully operational and invest
in a cheap second computer instead. You can thank me later!

I wrote a small shell script™ to automate building new Linux Kernels. I use this to build new kernels on my Debian systems:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
WORKSPACE='/home/gd/workspace'
LINUX="${WORKSPACE}/linux"
find "${WORKSPACE}" -type f \( -name 'linux-*deb' -o -name 'linux-upstream*' \) -mtime -3 -exec rm {} \;
