Hey there! I’m starting my journey to the learning of Rust. I have been coding only with Python for 6 years now and last year, I had to code in JavaScript using VueJS for my job (I never workedeon frontend).

Now, I have a personal project idea which I’d like to create. I could do it in Python but I want to learn Rust. I’ve looked up on the Internet but may be some answers are too old or someone here can point me to something I haven’t seen yet.

What do you recommand for webdev? I guess I need to code the back in Rust and use a JavaScript framework for the front. My backend will be for a REST API (my app will need to manage users and organisations).

Bonus question if you can recommend a BDD framework. I think there is something named Cucumber. Is it good?

Thanks a lot ♥️🦀

    Actix-Web was one of the original web frameworks and is still very popular and well supported. That said, it’s in the process of being replaced by Axum which is by the people who created Tokio (the async framework underlying both Actix-Web and Axum). Axum is fairly well supported now, although maybe not quite as complete as Actix-Web.
