Axum

Axum is an ergonomic, modular web application framework built on Tokio, Tower, and Hyper for high-throughput, type-safe asynchronous Rust services.

When to Use

• Modern Asynchronous Rust Web Services: Building RESTful APIs and microservices directly within the Tokio ecosystem.
• Tower Middleware Integration: Leveraging Tower's rich ecosystem of rate-limiting, timeouts, retries, and tracing.
• Modular Type-Safe Route Handlers: Combining extractors, route routers, and shared state seamlessly.
• High-Performance WebSockets & SSE: Real-time event streaming and live pub/sub endpoints in Rust.

Quick Start
