Rust & Actix Web Overview

2 years ago

A quick overview of the Actix-web crate in Rust. Actix is a neat web framework for building web apps. It would be great for building an API, but I've been using Actix with the "Askama" template engine to build out a site that allows user authentication as well.

Just keep in mind that you may need to conciously implement security measures if you do plan to deploy something with this. Such as API tokens, or something like that.

The Askama crate gives you Django/Jinja type templates.

I've had a blast using Actix and I think you will, too!
