django-tables2 VS hyper

How does this compare to https://github.com/jieter/django-tables2? That one makes it really easy to display database models with column sorting and pagination.

The degree of reusability (Thanks to things like GenericForeignKey and the ubiquity of Django Templates and Django ORM, there are tons of reusable components like django-filter or django-tables)

In Django there is django-tables2 for example, that creates html table from database query.

(eg. "Django apps" like django-filter and django-tables2, which rely on being a slice across the ORM, controller layer, and templating engine.)

From the readthedocs tutorial, A few examples:

I don't see how Axum would enable something like django-tables2 or django-filter which has is vertically integrated with Django's ORM, routing layer, and template system.

I've used actix-web for stuff... but I'm just sick of constantly reinventing the rote boilerplate that things like django-tables2 and django-filter generate for me once I've declared whatever customizations I want.

django-tables2 - like crispy forms but for tables, abstracts away the need to render tables in a template.

What's an example of this for, say, libcurl? On my system it has a tiny number of recursive dependencies, around a dozen. [0] Furthermore if I want to write a C program that uses libcurl I have to download zero bytes of data ... because it's a shared library that is already installed on my system, since so many programs already use it.

I don't really know the appropriate comparison for Rust. reqwest seems roughly comparable, but it's an HTTP client library, and not a general purpose network client like curl. Obviously curl can do a lot more. Even the list of direct dependencies for reqwest is quite long [1], and it's built on top of another http library [2] that has its own long list of dependencies, a list that includes tokio, no small library itself.

In terms of final binary size, the installed size of the curl package on my system, which includes both the command line tool and development dependencies for libcurl, is 1875.03 KiB.

[0] I'm excluding the dependency on the ca-certificates package, since this only provides the certificate chain for TLS and lots of programs rely on it.

Using Rust here was immensely helpful, using libraries made by the community like https://github.com/hyperium/hyper really powered up the development of Signway, so glad to see this kind of awesome crates made public. Hope that it continues to be like that despite the current controversies.

- Discord sends a slightly weird request by specifying content length (a bug in hyper we've not yet upgraded to fix, https://github.com/hyperium/hyper/commit/fb90d30c02d8f7cdc9a643597d5c4ca7a123f3dd)
