Summary

In this chapter, we have learned about production-ready compilation options. We can use them to ensure the resulting binary is as optimized as possible. We also learned about setting up a general-purpose HTTP server to work in conjunction with a Rocket application. And finally, we learned to create and run Docker images for the Rocket application.

After learning these techniques, we expanded them to set up the Rocket application to serve its intended users.

In the next chapter, we are going to learn about using Rust to create a frontend WebAssembly application in conjunction with a Rocket application.
