Interest in a DIY micro-service system?

Hello, everyone. I've been having fun these last few days building the more common components of a micro-service system out of anything I can think of. For example, I built an API Gateway with Phoenix and Elixir and a configuration server in Python.

Is there any interest in a tutorial or series following these lessons? The main point of the tutorial would be to demonstrate how a micro-service system can be developed by composing simple, stack-agnostic services. I will avoid using pre-built solutions and instead opt for building each component myself either with a few libraries or a popular framework. I find that this technique of learning is especially helpful at demystifying the more complicated aspects of any technology.

I would be using Docker and Docker-Compose for development and K8s for a simulated deployment.

Let me know in the comments if this sounds interesting.
