State of Rust for web backends

• sea-orm

  37 3,941 9.8 Rust

  🐚 An async & dynamic ORM for Rust

  

  There's SeaORM. (Which is built on top of SQLx if you prefer something more like SQLAlchemy's query builder layer without its ORM layer.)

• mux

  43 17,948 2.6 Go

  A powerful HTTP router and URL matcher for building Go web servers with 🦍

  

  popular libraries looking for new maintainers and getting eventually archived ( https://github.com/gorilla/mux )

• aws-lambda-rust-runtime

  12 2,631 9.1 Rust

  A Rust runtime for AWS Lambda

  

  Hi, maybe check out https://github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-rust-runtime there's some examples in there.. But essentially you can build a Lambda function and deploy to your AWS account with this toolset.

• Rocket

  70 20,203 7.8 Rust

  A web framework for Rust.

  I am the solo developer of two web applications which use backends (and frontends, I guess) written in Rust. I cannot recommend Rust highly enough for solo developers, even beginners in Rust. The first one uses Rocket, and it was my first real project where I really learned how to use Rust and get the most out of it in this domain. I'm still pretty happy with Rocket and enjoy developing on top of it, however I would not use it for a new project today.

• actix-web

  91 16,988 8.4 Rust

  Actix Web is a powerful, pragmatic, and extremely fast web framework for Rust.

  

  The second one uses Actix and I'm still very happily developing on top of it today. Actix these days is my go-to for any web backend that needs to be written in Rust.

• tokio

  70 19,836 8.8 Rust

  A runtime for writing reliable asynchronous applications with Rust. Provides I/O, networking, scheduling, timers, ...

  

  I started using axum earlier this year, it's a relatively young project, but builds on the shoulders of more established giants like tokio, hyper and tower, both enabling use of a wider ecosystem of utilities for your services (tower and tower-http provide already pretty common services/layers you might need).

• hyper

  44 11,456 7.8 Rust

  An HTTP library for Rust (by hyperium)

• InfluxDB

  Access the most powerful time series database as a service. Ingest, store, & analyze all types of time series data in a fully-managed, purpose-built database. Keep data forever with low-cost storage and superior data compression.

  

• diesel

  43 10,111 9.5 Rust

  A safe, extensible ORM and Query Builder for Rust

  

  I've been building a relatively small project with axum and diesel, and I'm pretty happy with it.

• routerify

  1 365 0.0 Rust

  A lightweight, idiomatic, composable and modular router implementation with middleware support for the Rust HTTP library hyper.rs

  

  You can checkout an example AWS Lambda entrypoint for an HTTP library Routerify (very similar to Axum) here: https://github.com/routerify/routerify/blob/master/examples/aws_lambda.rs

• filter

  9 752 0.0 Go

  Simple apply/filter/reduce package.

  Also since generators are mentioned I recently came across this rob pike moment, he implemented a reduce function that takes and returns all interface{} types and uses reflection to check if the call is valid at runtime - that's the most typical Go that can ever be written in 40 lines - all that to make the point that it's useless. Such a great spirit. https://github.com/robpike/filter

• lettre

  6 1,367 7.6 Rust

  a mailer library for Rust

  

  lettre is the mails crate I'm hoping to use soon.
