  Build fast web applications with Rust.

  

Lots of new frontend frameworks have been built on top of Rust, including Leptos, which happens to be one of the most popular ones. In this guide, we'll highlight why and how to migrate your JavaScript frontend to use the Leptos Rust frontend framework.

• trunk

For illustration purposes, we’ll use bits and pieces of a React application I created as a case study throughout the rest of this guide. Right now, you have a basic Rust application with Leptos installed. To follow along, clone the React Todo project by running the command below:

• crates.io

  660 2,796 10.0 Rust

  The Rust package registry

  

So, be sure to double-check your critical libraries and be sure their alternatives exist in the Rust ecosystem. There’s a good chance the crates you need are available in Rust's crates.io repository.
