  • Yew alternatives
    2 projects | /r/learnrust | 13 Jun 2023
    Practically every Rust web frontend I've seen takes a react-like approach, with "hooks" to store all of the state in. The now-abandoned Seed and Yew's struct components use a message-passing approach, where the state is stored as member variables on the struct representing the component that are updated based on messages dispatched by event handlers. There's also egui, which has a completely different paradigm that involves making the UI from scratch every frame based on the app's current state. It's not a web framework the same way as the others, but it can draw its UI to a web canvas just fine.

    Sycamore, Yew, or Seed if you want a full-stack solution. (Or Leptos if you want something that's faster but less mature.)
  • Full-stack authentication system using rust (actix-web) and sveltekit
    19 projects | dev.to | 23 Apr 2023
    An authentication system is an integral part of modern applications. It's so important that almost all modern applications have some sort of it. Because of their critical nature, such systems should be secure and should follow OWAP®'s recommendations on web security and password hashing as well as storage to prevent attacks such as Preimage and Dictionary attacks (common to SHA algorithms). To demonstrate some of the recommendations, we'll be building a robust session-based authentication system in Rust and a complementary frontend application. For this article series, we'll be using Rust's actix-web and some awesome crates for the backend service. SvelteKit will be used for the frontend. It should be noted however that what we'll be building is largely framework agnostic. As a result, you can decide to opt for axum, rocket, warp or any other rust's web framework for the backend and react, vue or any other javascript framework for the frontend. You can even use rust's yew, seed or some templating engines such as MiniJinja or tera at the frontend. It's entirely up to you. Our focus will be more on the concepts.

  • Blazor United - When it ships it would be the most glorious way to do web with .NET
    5 projects | /r/programming | 25 Jan 2023
    Aside from Blazor there's already some other projects like Yew (rust), seed (rust), asm-dom (C++) and vugu (Go) and more that have decent followings and activity. A lot more (especially managed languages) are waiting for some features to come online like wasm GC and host bindings (direct wasm access to browser apis which includes the DOM). It'll take a bit of time, but it'll get there eventually.

    For desktop apps maybe check out Tauri . You can use it with a lot of (web)frontend options including yew/wasm (also Seed ) if you want to go 100% Rust. Actix and Rocket are options for web framework. Also have look at the Building a Command Line Program in the book. I found it really helpful since i am just starting to learn myself.

    I haven't been keeping up with it, but have heard of it. If ibrecall correctly it was created by the developer that initially developed seed (https://seed-rs.org/)

  • Prodzilla: From Zero to Prod with Rust and Shuttle

    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.

    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.

    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.
