TECHNOLOGIES INCLUDED

axum

Ergonomic async Rust web framework built on Tokio and Tower.

next.js

React framework with App Router, SSR, and streaming.

sqlx

Compile-time checked SQL queries. No ORM overhead.

seaorm

Async, dynamic ORM for Rust. An alternative to SQLx.

postgresql

The world's most advanced open-source relational database.

mysql

High-performance, widely-used relational database.

sqlite

Zero-config embedded database. Perfect for development.

jwt auth

Stateless authentication tokens. Full middleware included.

Core Principles

Skip the scaffolding tax.

Setting up a modern Rust web server is tedious. Ruxum handles the framework wiring, logging, database config, and auth so you can focus on your product.

01

Zero boilerplate

Start with a complete, production-ready project structure. Typed errors, structured logging, env config, and CORS middleware are all wired up on day zero.

02

Type-safe end-to-end

Rust's compile-time guarantees on the backend. TypeScript on the frontend. Two type systems working together so runtime surprises stay rare.

03

Your choices, instantly

Pick your database, ORM, authentication, and scaffold type in an interactive wizard. You answer; the scaffolder builds the exact project you described.

04

Deploy-ready from the start

Structured tracing with tracing-subscriber, environment-aware config via dotenvy, and tower-http middleware — the production checklist is already checked.
