Rust Question and Answer Web app

Background

This is a simple Rust Web Axum server, so far serving a handful of REST API endpoints as the basis of a "Q&A" or question and answer application. The APIs supported offer basic CRUD functionality. Specifically, this example mirrors that which is found in the early chapters of the Rust Web Development textbook by Bastian Gruber (except using Axum and not Warp). A frontend web server using Yew is also provided to utilize the APIs

Setup

Rustup

First install Rust. I suggest using the rustup toolchain

Then run cargo install trunk

Finally, run both the backend and frontend to use the application

Using the backend crate

See backend/README.me

Using the frontend crate

See frontend/README.me
