jelly-actix-web-starter VS yew

You can look at https://github.com/secretkeysio/jelly-actix-web-starter

My usual reminder that I have a Django-ish template for actix-web that I maintain: https://github.com/secretkeysio/jelly-actix-web-starter

Now that actix-web 4.0 is out I should be able to finally resolve one of the open issues/PRs, which I was waiting on 4.0 for.

For those interested in Django-in-Rust type approaches, I maintain an actix-web starter project that does exactly this: https://github.com/secretkeysio/jelly-actix-web-starter

I maintain a starter for all of this kind of stuff on top of actix-web, for anyone interested: https://github.com/secretkeysio/jelly-actix-web-starter/

Curious why you went with the mailbox approach - since a request is pretty much in-and-out, I found it sufficient to just write a trait for HttpRequest and have a custom render(...) method that pulls any flash messages from the session, thus clearing them. Wouldn't surprise me if I'm missing something tho.

I love Askama, but being tied to compile time changes is an absurd handicap on a web framework in the initial iteration phase. With Tera, you can implement a watcher for template changes and reload them without needing to recompile the entire framework.

If you want, I have an open source actix-web repo that does stuff like this for you already.

If you enjoy Python's web story but want something similar-ish in Rust, you can check out my actix boilerplate repo - it "mimics" Django in many ways. If nothing else, might be useful for picking apart.

Yew is a framework for creating reliable and efficient web applications. Yew

I coded up a game of life implementation in rust and web assembly using https://yew.rs/ as an effort to sharpen my rust skills and it resulted as a fun toy. You can find the source here: https://gitlab.com/reedrichards/wvdom Enjoy!

UI template: Yew - (https://yew.rs/)

I'm surprised nobody said they'd use [Yew](https://yew.rs/), especially given the premise of this being for a passion project.

This example shows updating an existing state: https://github.com/yewstack/yew/blob/04909dd942eb64285652d96a2621bdf7be3fa912/examples/timer_functional/src/main.rs

1. Not related to npm, but related to the web.

2. True, but compilers are generally better than transpilers.

3. Have you seen https://yew.rs/ ?

You could use Yew to write web apps, which can be opened on Android phones.
