This week, I learnt about one of the easiest ways to get a database set up in the cloud without having to sign up for anything! I'd heard about Railway before but had never used it, but when I was streaming yesterday with @ajcwebdev, he showed me how to spin up one over there with no commitments of any kind or sign-up. I think this is the first time I see this anywhere.

If you want to see it in action, head on over to dev.new

I've just started at a new job so a lot. Some basic Docker usage, Nest.js, Hexagon and DDD. I've been exposed to those.
