Hey! I am building Microservices framework with focus on simplicity and potentially targeted to dev environments, it's in veeeeeeery alfa stage, so only WIKI exists reflecting current design and use cases. However I'd like to get some feedback to see if see the whole thing make a sense. Thanks

Ok. Huge part of building microservices framework is infrastructure automation - like setup nginx load balancing in runtime, build and deploy apps from source code, configuring services, tcp ports, health checks, horizontal scaling (adding new worker nodes), setup logging and monitoring, etc, also this needs to be propagated to all cluster nodes, I am not going to do this from the scratch - Sparky is alike (rough comparison though) ansible but with UI and programmable on Raku, so as Sparky has already addressed the mentioned tasks, it's logical for me to carry on with it. If we take Sparky out of equation, Raku by itself is reach and super flexible language to automate infrastructure, I don't see why can't I use it for that ...
