I don't really know what you mean by serverside HTML generation crate. HTML is just HTML. What I usually need is some templating system, and that can be used to produce HTML, SQL, or whatever else I want. Use askama or tera, for example. Here's an example of using askama with axum: https://github.com/djc/askama/tree/main/askama_axum https://github.com/djc/askama/tree/main/askama_axum If you mean something more significant, like what an ORM/query builder is to SQL, then I haven't really had a need for such a thing myself. It's far more likely to get in my way when I stray past common scenarios.
