Features

• HTTP Servers - Serves as a comprehensive HTTP server framework with integrated routing and middleware.
• Request Payload Deserializers - Provides built-in deserialization of JSON request payloads into structured Rust data types.
• Middleware-Based Request Pipelines - Implements a modular request-processing architecture based on pluggable middleware chains.
• Custom Middleware Implementations - Allows developers to implement custom middleware for cross-cutting concerns like authentication and logging.
• Trait-Based Deserialization - Leverages Rust traits to map JSON payloads to strongly typed structures for safe data processing.
• Middleware Chains - Utilizes an architectural pipeline where requests are processed through a sequential chain of middleware.
• Request Routing - Implements a routing system that maps incoming request paths and methods to specific handlers.
• RESTful API Development - Provides a framework for building RESTful web services that handle JSON data and HTTP methods.
• Route Handlers - Maps incoming HTTP requests to specific internal logic handlers using parameters and wildcards.
• Rust Web Frameworks - Provides a complete toolkit for building high-performance, safe web applications using Rust.
• Server-Side Dynamic Page Generation - Generates dynamic web pages by merging data with HTML templates on the server.
• Error Management - Implements centralized systems to catch application crashes and ensure consistent error responses.
• Type-Safe State Injections - Provides a type-safe container for injecting shared application state throughout the request lifecycle.
• HTML Template Renderers - Ships a server-side rendering engine that merges data variables with markup templates to generate HTML.
• Server-Side Template Engines - Includes a server-side template engine for injecting dynamic data into HTML responses.
• Error Handling - Intercepts uncaught exceptions to provide custom error pages and recovery actions.
• Global Error Handlers - Includes a global error handler to intercept uncaught exceptions and return standardized HTTP error responses.
• Trie-Based Routing Engines - Uses a trie-based routing engine for high-performance matching of URL paths to handlers.
