Building a Rust app with Perseus

• axum

  150 16,097 9.3 Rust

  Ergonomic and modular web framework built with Tokio, Tower, and Hyper

  

Perseus applications also make use of tokio, a Rust asynchronous runtime, and perseus-axum — an integration that streamlines the use of the Perseus frontend framework with the Axum web framework, specifically on the engine side. The configuration file also shows a section for browser-only dependencies. Even though there are no default dependencies in this section, it indicates a place where such dependencies could be added as your application evolves.

• json

  41 4,537 8.8 Rust

  Strongly typed JSON library for Rust (by serde-rs)

  

From the Cargo.toml file above, we can see that the Perseus version at the time of publication is 0.4.2 and has the following dependencies that are common to both the engine side (server-side) and client side of a Perseus application: sycamore, serde, and serde_json.

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• sycamore

  70 2,665 7.4 Rust

  A library for creating reactive web apps in Rust and WebAssembly

  

Perseus is a fast frontend web development framework for Rust with built-in support for reactivity using Sycamore, server-side rendering, and much more. Sycamore is a frontend library that allows you to build interactive user interfaces with Rust. I’d say that Perseus is to Sycamore as Next.js is to React, so it’ll be helpful for you to have a fair understanding of Sycamore before jumping into using Perseus — although it’s not necessary to follow along in this article.

• perseus-todo-app

  1 3 4.6 Rust

Make sure you put the CSS file in the static directory at the root of your application, not in .perseus/static/styles.css but in static/style.css. Perseus will do the rest. Note that the static directory might not be there at first; you’ll have to create it. For this project, you can get all the source code, including the CSS, from GitHub.

• serde

  191 8,572 9.1 Rust

  Serialization framework for Rust

  

From the Cargo.toml file above, we can see that the Perseus version at the time of publication is 0.4.2 and has the following dependencies that are common to both the engine side (server-side) and client side of a Perseus application: sycamore, serde, and serde_json.

• perseus

  27 2,108 7.6 Rust

  A state-driven web development framework for Rust with full support for server-side rendering and static generation.

  

The best part is that it doesn’t use a virtual DOM for its reactivity, which can lead to a significant increase in performance.  Perseus not only inherits some of the best aspects of existing web frameworks but also strives to surpass them. Perseus went stable on April 9, 2023 after one year of beta development -- this is just the beginning!

• Rocket

  155 23,343 8.9 Rust

  A web framework for Rust.

  

Rust is a popular system programming language, known for its robust memory safety features and exceptional performance. While Rust was originally a system programming language, its application has evolved. Now you can see Rust in different app platforms, mobile apps, and of course, in web apps — both in the frontend and backend, with frameworks like Rocket, Axum, and Actix making it even easier to build web applications with Rust.

• InfluxDB

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• actix-web

  171 20,249 9.1 Rust

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