Web development

A general overview of the status of this domain can be found at http://arewewebyet.com/. At the time of writing, a number of web frameworks that provide vital support for basic needs are available. To get an initial idea of coding in practice, we have supplied a "hello world" example snippet for each of them:

  • iron is the oldest framework. It was built for high concurrency needs, so it scales very well. The codebase has a high degree of modularity. Here is how you say "hello-world" in iron:
extern crate iron; 
 
use iron::prelude::*; 
use iron::status; 
 
fn main() { 
    Iron::new(|_: &mut Request| { 
        Ok(Response::with((status::Ok, "Hello World!"))) 
    }).http("localhost:3000").unwrap(); 
}
