6. serde

   5 198 9,522 9.1 Rust

   Serialization framework for Rust

   

   If the request parameter cannot be parsed, the appropriate response code is sent instead of calling the function, so we have the usual comfort of type safety. Request bodies are handled very similarly, and of course, parsing integrates seamlessly with serde.

7. hyper

   6 108 15,058 8.3 Rust

   An HTTP library for Rust (by hyperium)

   

   In particular the last point is what sets axum apart from other frameworks axum doesn't have its own middleware system but instead uses tower::Service. This means axum gets timeouts, tracing, compression, authorization, and more, for free. It also enables you to share middleware with applications written using hyper or tonic.
