What is it? BustAPI is a Python web framework built on a Rust (Actix-Web) core. It uses PyO3 to handle routing and JSON serialization in Rust, offering performance that rivals Go/Node while keeping Python’s syntax.
The Highlights:
Speed: Reaches 100k+ RPS on Linux (multiprocessing).
Syntax: Uses standard decorators like @app.get("/").
Built-ins: Argon2, JWT, and CSRF protection included.
Why it matters: It aims to eliminate the "Python tax" by moving the heavy lifting to a memory-safe Rust runtime.
The original project was gaining significant momentum before the lock. We are hosting the code here to ensure the community can continue testing and contributing while the author resolves the GitHub status.
