🦀 Rust as a High-level Programming Language: Backend Webdev with axum and Diesel 🕸
Have you ever considered that Rust could be a highly productive and expressive high-level programming language? Let us show you how the combination of Rust, axum and Diesel will always beat the likes of TypeScript, Express / NestJS and TypeORM.
Part of the Tokio project, axum is a well-architectured web framework with a macro-free API, async route handlers, declarative request parsing and type-safe state management. It gives you the full power of the Tower middleware ecosystem.
Diesel is a powerful and high-performance ORM that checks your database queries at compile time using Rust's type system. It supports multiple database backends (including PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite), database connection pooling and integrates well with async. It also allows you to write migrations to manage changes in the database schema.
