Thanks to everyone who attended yesterday. It was a great meet-up.

So many things happening in the Racket world. I'm now wondering if I can use WebRacket with Camp

Thank you @dominik.pantucek for presenting ebb - a drop-in replacement for threading macro. The performance improvements demonstrated were impressive.

We did an informal survey on Racket packages and Threading by @lexi.lambda was the most popular by a significant margin: What are the most used packages?

Next meet-up will be on Saturday, 6 June. Everyone welcome.

Keep on racketeering and let us know what you have done in Show & Tell here or in #show-and-tell on the Racket Discord.
