Hi everyone!

I started learning Rust a couple days ago and I’m having fun with it. I’m trying to learn both for fun but also I plan on going back to Uni at the end of this year after roughly 5 years out of education.

I’m trying to think of projects I can do down the line to practice and for fun. Something I really want to build is a full stack web app (I have some basic knowledge of front end.)

Since I’m trying to learn rust, I was thinking of using something like Actix to build the server.

As for database stuff, I was thinking of postgres since that seems very in demand rn!

As for front end, I’m torn between using something like React which I’m somewhat familiar with or trying something like Yew to write it all in Rust!

I mostly would like some feedback on my plan (I understand there aren’t many details given, this is mostly an idea a couple months down the line), if i need to change my scope, if theres anything I should change, any resources that might be helpful, or really any advice!

    Here’s some (KIM i’m not experienced in webdev at all, only low level stuff):

    • Copy shit. I’m making a forum software and wherever i’m confused i literally just see how other forum softwares did it lmao

    • Split your project into crates. It’s much more modular and easier to work with

    • My personal favorite stack is: Axum/Diesel(postgres)/Dioxus/DaisyUI. You should check some of them out but they may not fit you.

    GL on your project!

      Thanks for the reply . I appreciate the advice! Ill definitely check some of those out, DaisyUI looks really cool! Ive used tailwind quite a bit so seeing the stuff daisyui can do is really neat!
