    Loco is a relatively new Rust web framework which first appeared around 2021. It is strongly inspired by Ruby on Rails, and designed to bring developers productivity as various functionality on routing, middlewares, and request handling. They aim to provide a modern and intuitive development experience.

    There are about a half dozen "Rails-inspired" Rust frameworks under development. They're probably a little too early to start using in production, and you should stick with Actix/Axum Flask-style frameworks for the time being.

    That said, here are a few examples:

    - https://loco.rs/

    - https://github.com/levkk/rwf

    - https://tokio.rs/blog/2024-10-23-announcing-toasty (Tokio is beginning to assemble the pieces: Axum, Toasty, etc.)

  • Show HN: Rust Web Framework
    13 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 22 Oct 2024
    Lately I've been following https://loco.rs/ as it aims for a rails-like experience, complete with generators for workers, controllers, etc. I've only had time to experiment but it's the closest I've gotten to feeling rails-y in rust.
  • Straightforward tool for managing documentation that includes code snippets
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 26 Jun 2024
    When I maintained the https://loco.rs project, I often encountered issues with documentation not keeping up with code changes.

    To address this, I developed the snipdoc tool, which significantly improved the project's ease of maintaining and validating the docs as part of our CI.

    I would love to hear your feedback.

    Well, no, that's not really a fair assessment. Someone is quite literally doing "rails but for Rust" with loco: https://loco.rs

    As far as I know, the bulk of this effort has been one developer pushing it along. I wouldn't personally use it but it _does_ exist.

    It's also worth noting that these older frameworks all come from a different era of development - nowadays most newer devs seem to want to build microservice-after-microservice, where these don't quite fit into the picture.

  • Prodzilla: From Zero to Prod with Rust and Shuttle
    6 projects | dev.to | 21 Feb 2024
    Moreover, I especially like where Rust is right now in the web space. It really feels like there’s a lot of smart people working on the next generation of web development tools - it feels like the place to be. There are a range of great open-source web dev tools that are just reaching critical levels of maturity. Axum, which I used to build Prodzilla, feels ready for out of the box web dev, and is crazy-performant, as I write about later. More recently available is Loco, a Rails-like framework for building web applications in Rust that's picking up steam. And in dev-tooling and hosting there’s Shuttle, a 1-line hosting solution for Rust backends.
