rapid-rs – Zero-config Rust web framework combining FastAPI and Spring Boot

Summary: rapid-rs is a Rust web framework that enables production-ready APIs with zero configuration, integrating FastAPI's developer experience and Spring Boot's conventions using Axum. It provides auto-generated docs, type-safe request validation, and high performance.

What it does

rapid-rs auto-configures database, logging, and CORS, offers request validation, and serves Swagger UI at /docs. It requires one command to start and supports type-safe API development.

Who it's for

It targets Rust developers seeking to reduce boilerplate, Python developers wanting FastAPI-like DX with better speed, and Java developers looking for Spring Boot conventions without the JVM.

Why it matters

It eliminates repetitive setup in Rust APIs, delivering a faster, convention-driven framework that accelerates development and improves runtime performance.
