axum VS sycamore

There are some proposals on how to do it already such as https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum/issues/1698.

Moreover, I especially like where Rust is right now in the web space. It really feels like there’s a lot of smart people working on the next generation of web development tools - it feels like the place to be. There are a range of great open-source web dev tools that are just reaching critical levels of maturity. Axum, which I used to build Prodzilla, feels ready for out of the box web dev, and is crazy-performant, as I write about later. More recently available is Loco, a Rails-like framework for building web applications in Rust that's picking up steam. And in dev-tooling and hosting there’s Shuttle, a 1-line hosting solution for Rust backends.

CryptoFlow is a full-stack web application built with Axum and SvelteKit. It's a Q&A system tailored towards the world of cryptocurrency!

You also get to specify the accepted HTTP method of the URL via axum::routing. To answer its name, modularity, Axum also supports nested routes as we'll see later in this series. Next is the layer, a method used to apply tower::Layer to all routes before it. This means that routes added after the layer method will not have such a layer applied to their requests. In our case, we used the layer to add tracing to all HTTP requests and responses to our routes. This is needed for proper logging. The tower_http::trace::TraceLayer can even be really customised.

I build simple rust axum api server with Prisma client rust. This is my something done with rust and I really enjoyed rust!

In this article we'll take a comprehensive look at how to use Axum to write a web service. This will also include the 0.7 changes.

You have a couple of options for the underlying web framework to pair with Leptos: Axum or Actix. Axum seems to carry more favour currently, so we start with that. Assuming you already have Rust set up on your system:

I’m the author of https://kellnr.io. When I started working on Kellnr three years ago, https://rocket.rs was “the web framework” to use. Unfortunately, the project seems dead. Before adding more functionality using an unmaintained framework, I want to port Kellnr to https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum.

Web Framework : axum.

Perseus is a fast frontend web development framework for Rust with built-in support for reactivity using Sycamore, server-side rendering, and much more. Sycamore is a frontend library that allows you to build interactive user interfaces with Rust. I’d say that Perseus is to Sycamore as Next.js is to React, so it’ll be helpful for you to have a fair understanding of Sycamore before jumping into using Perseus — although it’s not necessary to follow along in this article.

Now, I considered whether to spend more time fixing everything that now failed in sycamore 0.9. But there are major changes ahead which would require yet another major refactoring, to the point where I am not sure whether it would not be more of a rewrite than a refactoring, given my previous experiences with sycamore.

Sycamore.

Sycamore, Yew, or Seed if you want a full-stack solution. (Or Leptos if you want something that's faster but less mature.)

There are others, like Sycamore, similar story as Leptos but imo Leptos is (currently) more ergonomic.

Sycamore is a reactive library for creating web apps in Rust and WebAssembly. https://github.com/sycamore-rs/sycamore

I tried my first project with yew as frontend. And my experience was after some time similar to the already mentioned ones: It is a little more to take on than I actually wanted. And some things were not straightforward to achieve. I switched to sycamore for the other projects now and I am much more satisfied (but this could also be since I have some more experience in the Rust ecosystem by now). Changing from yew to sycamore was pretty easy and I can achieve most of the tasks with less code.

If you want to do fullstack/SPA stuff, check out Sycamore, Seed, and Yew.

If you want to do front-end SPA development, take a look at Yew, Seed, or Sycamore.

I have written a front-end (website) application in Rust that is used internally in production. I wouldn't recommend to use something like sycamore, leptos, dioxus, yew for you next puplic web-app now but i can absolutely see how this is used in the future as those libs mature.
