Tokio + Axum + SQLx has been a total game-changer for me for web dev. It's by far the most productive I've been with any backend web stack.

  People that haven't tried this are downvoting with prejudice, but they just don't know. Rust is an absolute gem at web backend. An absolute fucking gem.

    We know, it stil isn't at Spring/ASP.NET level, coupled with Scala/Kotlin/F#.

      I hate Spring(Boot): too much magic due to overuse of annotations. On the JVM I'd prefer Kotlin/http4k/SQLDelight any day over {Java,Kotlin}/Spring(Boot)/{Hibernate,sql-in-strings}.

        Because macro magic, or compiler plugins, is so much better, I guess.

          What do you mean? Where are the "macro magic or compiler plugins"?

            Most Rust frameworks, which was the point of this thread, > Rust is an absolute gem at web backend. An absolute fucking gem.

        Nothing beats vertx on JVM!

    Curious, do you mind going into more detail on why?

  I prefer rusqlite over SQLx; the latter is too bloated.
