Build fast, modular backend APIs with Axum and Tower middleware.
Axum is a modular web framework for Rust built on Tokio (async runtime) and Tower (middleware abstraction). It emphasizes composability, type safety, and zero-cost abstractions. Axum APIs are fast, safe (memory-safe at compile time), and testable. Rust is the language of choice for systems that need memory safety and performance. Axum is the modern framework for Rust web development. Key reasons:
