Rust Web Framework
Hi everyone, I've been "funemployed" for a few months and with all that free time and idle hands I wrote a full web framework (think Rails, not Flask) for Rust. It's boring old MVC, has its own ORM, templates, background jobs, auth, websockets, migrations and more. If you're keen but don't feel like rewriting your app in a different language, Rwf has a WSGI server to run Django (or Flask) inside Rust [1], letting you migrate to Rust at your own pace without disrupting your website. I think Rust makes a great prototyping and deploy straight to production language. Now it has yet another…

In plain words
Rust Web Framework is a full-featured web framework for Rust that follows a traditional MVC architecture. It includes an integrated ORM, templating engine, background jobs, authentication, WebSockets, and database migrations. The framework uniquely supports running existing Django or Flask applications within Rust through a WSGI server, enabling gradual migration from Python without rewriting entire applications. It targets developers seeking to build or migrate web applications in Rust while maintaining production-ready deployment capabilities.

Talanoa▲341Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
