Managing views using the Actix Web framework
In the Launching a basic Actix Web server section, we defined our views in the main.rs file. However, this is not scalable. If we continue to define all our routes in main, we will end up with a lot of imports and route definitions in one file. This makes it hard to navigate and manage.
