Rwf is a comprehensive framework for building fast and secure web applications in Rust.
It follows the model-view-controller (MVC) architectural pattern and provides a cohesive, opinionated development environment rather than requiring developers to assemble a web stack from numerous independent libraries. The framework aims to combine Rust’s performance, reliability, and type safety with a productive workflow familiar to developers who have used established full-stack web frameworks.
The software is currently in beta and is primarily aimed at early adopters who are comfortable using a framework that is still evolving. Most of its functionality is considered usable, and supporting documentation is available, but interfaces and behaviour may continue to change as development progresses.
This is free and open source software.
