Description

Are safety and high performance a big concern for you while developing web applications? With this practical Rust book, you’ll discover how you can implement Rust on the web to achieve the desired performance and security as you learn techniques and tooling to build fully operational web apps. In this second edition, you’ll get hands-on with implementing emerging Rust web frameworks, including Actix, Rocket, and Hyper. It also features HTTPS configuration on AWS when deploying a web application and introduces you to Terraform for automating the building of web infrastructure on AWS. What’s more, this edition also covers advanced async topics. Built on the Tokio async runtime, this explores TCP and framing, implementing async systems with the actor framework, and queuing tasks on Redis to be consumed by a number of worker nodes. Finally, you’ll go over best practices for packaging Rust servers in distroless Rust Docker images with database drivers, so your servers are a total size of 50Mb each. By the end of this book, you’ll have confidence in your skills to build robust, functional, and scalable web applications from scratch.

A. Zubarev Nov 01, 2023

The book is focused on what it promises and delivers.Despite I think this book is opinionated (the author chose the appropriate ways and platform to create the Web apps) it will take you the right alley to building a working Web App in Rust.Speaking of Rust and one of the several points to improve, the Rust programming language is not covered deep enough. So prepare to obtain supplementary material on Rust to cover its many topics more in-depth. Another weak topic is that the book concentrated on AWS as the Cloud provider. Why the other operators are important is because of the popularity of the multi-cloud deployments. Lastly, I wished the book had dedicated time to efficient debugging/TDE.Now when I covered the negatives or rather the critical aspects of what to expect I would like to give some praises:The breadth of the book is sheer, what I mean is it covers so many Rust frameworks and crates that a developer will find it useful to apply them in one case or another.The book is not limited to building a Web app in a single given way (multiple applications types are covered). The books goes beyond the regular Web development attributes into middleware (Redis, data persistence. etc.).Enjoy!

Everything is as expected. The only thing is that the right bottom corner of the book is very dirty although the book is new

Pankaj Singh Rathore May 14, 2023

I have thoroughly reviewed this book, and it proves to be an invaluable resource for learning Rust or solidifying your understanding of its fundamental concepts. I highly recommend purchasing this book if you are eager to learn Rust or become a proficient Rust programmer. It offers comprehensive insights and guidance that will greatly contribute to your mastery of Rust.

Amazon Customer Mar 13, 2023

Overall I'd say the book is well structured, and fulfilled with the latest Web frameworks: Actix, Hyper, Rocket. I like the idea of using a concrete example to introduce these frameworks and I believe it's the most effective way to introduce new tools.Something I expected but now shown in this book: native HTTPS or TLS/SSL (introducing Rustls), detailed performance tweaking/analysis (since readers probably want to try Rust because of performance), MySQL or SQLite (more popular dbs for small business), advanced logging (like integration with sentry, etc)
