Rouille is a micro-web-framework library. It creates a listening socket and parses incoming HTTP requests from clients, then gives you the hand to process the request.
Rouille was designed to be intuitive to use if you know Rust. Contrary to express-like frameworks, it doesn’t employ middlewares. Instead everything is handled in a linear way.
Concepts closely related to websites (like cookies, CGI, form input, etc.) are directly supported by Rouille. More general concepts (like database handling or templating) are not directly handled, as they are considered orthogonal to the micro web framework. However Rouille’s design makes it easy to use in conjunction with any third-party library without the need for any glue code.
