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](https://soegaard.github.io/webracket/web-easy-examples.html) with [Camp](https://joeldueck.com/what-about/camp/index.html) Thank you @dominik.pantucek for presenting [ebb](https://gitlab.com/racketeer/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?](https://racket.discourse.group/t/what-are-the-most-used-packages/108/6) Next meet-up will be on Saturday, 6 June. Everyone welcome. Keep on racketeering 馃懐 and let us know what you have done in #Show & Tell here or in [`#show-and-tell` on the Racket Discord](https://discord.gg/qZYV4SgVwf).
