Creative Projects for Rust Programmers

By: Carlo Milanesi

Overview of this book

Rust is a community-built language that solves pain points present in many other languages, thus improving performance and safety. In this book, you will explore the latest features of Rust by building robust applications across different domains and platforms. The book gets you up and running with high-quality open source libraries and frameworks available in the Rust ecosystem that can help you to develop efficient applications with Rust. You'll learn how to build projects in domains such as data access, RESTful web services, web applications, 2D games for web and desktop, interpreters and compilers, emulators, and Linux Kernel modules. For each of these application types, you'll use frameworks such as Actix, Tera, Yew, Quicksilver, ggez, and nom. This book will not only help you to build on your knowledge of Rust but also help you to choose an appropriate framework for building your project. By the end of this Rust book, you will have learned how to build fast and safe applications with Rust and have the real-world experience you need to advance in your career.

The yauth app

The login app, presented in the previous section, showed how to create a parent component containing one of several possible child components. However, it implemented just one child component, the Login component. So, in this section, a more complete example will be presented, having three different possible child components, corresponding to three different pages of a classical web application.

It is named yauth, short for Yew Auth, as its behavior is almost identical to the auth project shown in the previous chapter, although, it is completely based on the Yew framework, instead of being based on Actix web and Tera.

Understanding the behavior of the app

This app is built and launched like the ones in the previous sections, and its first page is identical to the first page of the login app. Though, if you type susan as the username and xsusan as the password, and then click on the Log in button, you'll see the following page:

This page and the other page that you...
