This is a submission for the Neon Open Source Starter Kit Challenge: Ultimate Starter Kit
My Kit
🦀 Rust Microservice Starter Kit - a powerful, type-safe, and memory-safe foundation for building high-performance APIs! This starter kit combines the robustness of Rust with the Axum web framework and the serverless PostgreSQL capabilities of Neon.
🌟 Key Features:
- Rust's strong type system and ownership model for safety and concurrency
- Axum's modular web framework for building scalable APIs
- Neon's serverless PostgreSQL with autoscaling and bottomless storage
- SeaORM for intuitive database interactions
- Comprehensive documentation and examples

The repository includes detailed setup instructions, covering prerequisites, installation, project structure, testing, and deployment.
My Journey
Learning Rust was initially challenging, with concepts like borrowing, ownership, and lifetimes seeming confusing. However, with dedication and persistence, I gradually unraveled the language's intricacies.
Creating this starter kit allowed me to apply my Rust knowledge to a real-world project. I encountered obstacles but learned valuable lessons in perseverance and growth. The Rust community provided invaluable support throughout the journey.
Integrating Neon's serverless PostgreSQL was a game-changer, enabling me to focus on writing code without worrying about database management. SeaORM made database interactions seamless and intuitive.
Structuring the project in a maintainable and scalable manner was crucial. By separating concerns and leveraging Rust's module system, I created a clean and organized codebase.
🎉 I'm excited to share this starter kit with the community and empower developers to build robust microservices using Rust and Neon. Whether you're a seasoned Rust developer or just starting, this kit provides a solid foundation to kickstart your journey.
Happy coding, and may your Rust journey be filled with growth and success! 🚀✨
