I'm completely new to the rust ecosystem, but am I reading this right, this is basically a dev webserver for running in your checkout and testing locally? Is this a competitor to an incumbent as I cant imagine something like that doesn

I built one of these back during the january omicron wave (us). Mostly out of 'why not' boredom because I already had a box fan, a roll of duct tape, and a near infinite supply of cardboard from amazon, just had to buy four filter
