Also exciting that Kamal 2 (currently RC https://github.com/basecamp/kamal/releases ) will support auto-SSL and make it easy to run multiple apps on one server with Kamal.

something to note DHH is a beast. MSRK seems most of MSRK was written by him alone - https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk/commits/main?after=83dc82661b... his output is crazy. that's why he gets the big bucks

…so build our own looks really bad from an engineering perspective. When you look at the issues: https://github.com/mrsked/mrsk/issues/44 you can some see trivial shortcoming that has been solved for years by other solutions.
