This section covers what you will need to have running on your machine so that you can write the microservice for this chapter. The following components need to be installed:
- Vapor 4
- Swift 5
- XCode 11
- macOS/Linux
If you are planning on running multiple services on the same server, you should also be familiar with Nginx. We are also assuming that you have worked through the previous chapters and know how to write a Vapor microservice. All the code in this chapter will run alike on macOS and Linux.
