I like how book builds upon one large project that includes generating Docker images, connecting to a database and building a full stack app in Rust. Well written! #RustLang #Postgresql

This book walks you through each step of building a web server, and is a good intro to the rust programming language. Coming from a nodejs background, this book made me realize I could start branching out to other backend stacks.

Rocket is one of the most full featured web frameworks for Rust. Due to the amount of features it offers, Rocket can be overwhelming to take on for someone looking at getting into Rust web development. This book does a fantastic job of guiding the reader throughout the many different concepts found in Rocket, helping to dispel and explain some of the magic found under the hood. The book covers areas that are vital for being able to build a functional web app, such as middleware, using fairings, DB connections using SQLx and asynchronous processing using tokio.If you're looking to get started with building web apps using Rust, this book is a great resource to gain an understanding of how to do so using Rocket.

Goods books (or any books really) on Rust web frameworks are few and far between. I haven't read the entire book but I did sit down and devote 3 hours or so to it and read through page 189 (of 420 pages). It's well written and straight forward. Literally anyone who has done any coding (from simple JS or PHP to complicated C++) should be able grasp the information presented in this book and probably start use the Rocket web framework for Rust within hours if they want to try it out (for hobby or for serious projects / work). I am so glad I had the opportunity the check this book out!

As always, a bit of contextRust can cover a wide number of cases, from system tools (even operating systems (redox) and virtual machines (firecracker from Amazon/AWS)) to webappsIt can do the same as java/go with more "fences" (e.g.: thread-safety by design) and/or performance (no GC as in java/go)Rocket is a mature web framework with more or less 5 ~ 6 years of existence, now developed/kept by the communityIt's on par with other popular web frameworks from other languagesAlso, it is based on Tokio - probably the most used/trusted framework for network applications (http, grpc, sockets, ...) in rustThe book starts with a quick introduction to rust which can be useful if you don't know rustIt slowly develops rust programming with the rocket frameworkIt also covers the usage of templates and webassembly which are part of any modern web applicationSome highlights:- covers rocket structure and lifecycle- explains how to use databases with rocket through the crate sqlx-cli (CRUD)- explains the usage of templating- discuss some best practices (e.g.: how to avoid Insecure Direct Object References)- WebAssembly- json handling- testingTo summarize, it is a good introduction to the usage of rocketThe only thing I wish I could be done in a different way is that some rust programming details like borrowing are not explained in the introduction to rust but instead diluted through the bookI think this could be part of the first chapter and for those who are already experienced with rust, could skip the introduction to rust chapter altogether
