## About The Project
This is the result of following [Julia Evans'](https://jvns.ca/) [Wizard Zines](https://wizardzines.com/) guide called [Implement DNS in a weekend](https://implement-dns.wizardzines.com/).
One of Julias' difficulty-increasing optional recommendations was to reimplement the original Python code in a different language of our choosing.
I chose to do it in Lua! 🌙
