    SeaORM or the underlying SQLx query builder for SQL handling.

    SeaORM is the most advanced ORM currently available, but a lot of people prefer to just skip ORMing and go direct to the underlying SQLx query builder.

    If you want to do backend development, give actix-web or Axum a try. If you need templating, take a look at Maud and if you want an ORM, take a look at SeaORM.
  • Any web frameworks that could compare to Symfony?

    SeaORM is the most advanced option right now (though a lot of people prefer to go direct to the underlying SQLx library) but it doesn't yet match Django ORM for offering auto-generation of draft database migrations, which is one of the things I'm unwilling to regress on. (i.e. so all I need to hand-edit is stuff like "that's a rename, not a remove+add" and so on)

    Last I checked, authentication was weak. SeaORM is probably the most mature option if you're looking for an ORM like you'd find in another ecosystem (if you're willing to explore alternative designs, try using the underlying SQLx directly).
  • Programming block?

    What I really like about it (apart from being a really nicely designed language, that is very expressive, powerful, performant and one of the safest because of the strict typing/memory management), is that you can kind of focus on just programming, without all the hassles around setting up a project, thinking about building/deploying etc. as tooling is really awesome as well (rust-analyzer, cargo, crates.io etc.). Libraries are usually high-quality and innovative (which is IMHO not so true for a lot of different other languages, including the ones you mentioned). E.g. if you want to create a web-server/API you could try something like this (my current recommendation): https://github.com/tokio-rs/axum and https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx for good integration of typed sql in Rust or if you want something higher level: https://github.com/SeaQL/sea-orm
