Show HN: Rapid-rs – Zero-config web framework for Rust

https://crates.io/crates/rapid-rs
9•ashish_sharda•2mo ago
I built rapid-rs to eliminate the hours of boilerplate when starting a new Rust web service.

One command gets you: - Auto-configured DB, logging, CORS - OpenAPI/Swagger UI at /docs - Request validation - Production-ready observability

Built on Axum. Early benchmarks show ~50K req/s with 10-20MB RAM.

This is v0.1 - feedback welcome!

Crates: https://crates.io/crates/rapid-rs

Vibe-coded axum wrapper

very thin, too.. good if you want to create a LOT of rust micro services I suppose..
ashish_sharda•2mo ago
Exactly the use case! We run 15+ microservices and the setup boilerplate was killing us.

rapid-rs is for teams that need to spin up services quickly with consistent conventions - not for complex monoliths.

Curious: what would you want in a "batteries-included" Rust framework beyond what's here? Auth? Migrations? Something else?

aaronblohowiak•2mo ago
I use seaorm and migrations already.. I don't really believe in micro services unless you are in a very large company so I'm not your target audience.
