Lower Web-Stack

A strong lower web-stack is important not only to build strong web frameworks on top, but also to allow performance critical systems to reach deeper to squeeze out extra juice. Rust has a good support on HTTP servers, even an HTTP2 implementation, websockets and other protocols.

HTTP Stack

• async-h1

  

  Asynchronous HTTP 1.1 parser.

• h2

  

  An HTTP/2 client and server

• hyper

  

  A fast and correct HTTP library.

• tiny_http

  

  Low level HTTP server library

Websocket

• tungstenite

  

  Lightweight stream-based WebSocket implementation

• async-tungstenite

  

  Async binding for Tungstenite, the Lightweight stream-based WebSocket implementation

• tokio-tungstenite

  

  Tokio binding for Tungstenite, the Lightweight stream-based WebSocket implementation

• websocket

  

  [deprecated] A WebSocket (RFC6455) library for Rust.

• websocket-base

• wtx

  

  A collection of different transport implementations and related tools focused primarily on web technologies.

Other protocols

• quinn

  

  Versatile QUIC transport protocol implementation

• sozu
