In this chapter, we explored a lot about building web applications with Rust and how easy it is to get started, given the high-quality crates that are available to us. Being a compiled language, web applications written in Rust are many times smaller than other frameworks that are written in dynamic languages. Most of the web framework space is dominated by interpreted dynamic languages that can hog a lot of CPU but aren't very resource-efficient. However, people use them because web applications are very convenient to write with them.
Web applications that are written with Rust take up a lot less space at runtime. Rust also takes up less memory during runtime, as no interpreter is needed, as is the case with dynamic languages. With Rust, you get the best of both worlds, that is, the same feel of dynamic languages while at the same time being performant, like C. This...
