  A fast static site generator in a single binary with everything built-in. https://www.getzola.org

  

For a blog do you need a active webserver and database? If you can get away with a static site then IMO that is the better option. Does not strictly need to be rust then but there are a few rust static site generators out there like www.getzola.org (or see this site for a more comprehensive list of them in any language). These can be a lot less maintenance as there is no need for a database or server - posts are generally just stored as markdown files in the repo and hosting can be done for free on github/lab pages or sites like netlify.

  A scalable, distributed, collaborative, document-graph database, for the realtime web

  

For a database, postgresql is a good option, as is mysql or for a simple single host blog sqlite would be a simpler option. There is also https://surrealdb.com/ which is new and looks to be very interesting.
