anyhow VS todo-mvp

Depending on your use case, thiserror and/or anyhow.

There is ? as well as the anyhow(https://github.com/dtolnay/anyhow) crate that deals with long nested result chains.

There are crates out there that help you reduce this boiler plate. thiserror is good for creating custom errors and color-eyre or anyhow are good for dynamic errors.

Give anyhow a look.

I've brought anyhow::Result into scope, making error handling super easy to use. We don't need to specify all our Error types. It can automatically convert any errors that implement std::error::Error, which should be all of them. If an error propagates all the way up to main(), we'll get all the info it's captured printed to stdout.

Alternatively, if you've got a lot of error types and you're outside a library (so directly in a binary where you don't plan to reuse code elsewhere) you can use anyhow. This gives you an error type you can basically propagate any other error through. On top of that you can attach context information at every return. It's basically a more complicated Result>.

One approach is to define a separate error type for each crate and then use anyhow, eyre or Box to wrap the error, whever a function can return errors originating in several different crates.

Have you tried anyhow and thiserror for making it as simple as .context("Message") or ? to type-convert and propagate errors up the call stack?

This post is only concerned with Rust and will use assets identical to the last post. Create a folder called templates at the project's top-level, and place this index.html inside. You will also need to create a directory at src/resource and fill it with these files. There is a stylesheet and a handful of SVG files. Your structure should look like this:

There's a cool project called TODO MVP that showcases the merits of simple, server-side templating for web apps. A nice reminder that not everything needs to be a heavy JavaScript single-page application.
