Overview of this book

Are safety and high performance a big concern for you while developing web applications? While most programming languages have a safety or speed trade-off, Rust provides memory safety without using a garbage collector. This means that with its low memory footprint, you can build high-performance and secure web apps with relative ease. This book will take you through each stage of the web development process, showing you how to combine Rust and modern web development principles to build supercharged web apps. You'll start with an introduction to Rust and understand how to avoid common pitfalls when migrating from traditional dynamic programming languages. The book will show you how to structure Rust code for a project that spans multiple pages and modules. Next, you'll explore the Actix Web framework and get a basic web server up and running. As you advance, you'll learn how to process JSON requests and display data from the web app via HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. You'll also be able to persist data and create RESTful services in Rust. Later, you'll build an automated deployment process for the app on an AWS EC2 instance and Docker Hub. Finally, you'll play around with some popular web frameworks in Rust and compare them. By the end of this Rust book, you'll be able to confidently create scalable and fast web applications with Rust.

Technical requirements

In this chapter, we will build on the code that we built in Chapter 9, Testing Our Application Endpoints and Components. This can be found at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Rust-Web-Programming/tree/master/Chapter09/postman_testing.

You will also need a dockerhub account so that we can package and deploy our application. This can be found at https://hub.docker.com/.

You will also be deploying the application on a server. This means that you will need to sign up for an Amazon Web Services account. This can be done using the following URL: https://aws.amazon.com/.

You can find the full source code used in this chapter here: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Rust-Web-Programming/tree/master/Chapter10.
