BQN Web Framework (name comprised of bacon pun pending)

This project is primarily a way for me to further my understanding of the BQN language. BQN is an array programming language, similar to APL or J. My understanding is that languages like these are used by scientists, wizards, and people with oversized datasets. I however am a web developer so I decided to do the web developer thing of building yet another web framework.

How?

BQN doesn't have any networking built in. Rather than stopping and learning APL which does, like a sane person, I decided to crack open the CBQN FFI and have the web server portion and have a function which has an input and output similar to the ruby rack.
