A batteries\-included framework for building web apps

## AI-generated summary

Topcoat is a new Rust framework designed for building full\-stack web applications with a focus on simplicity and developer productivity. It aims to reduce boilerplate by rendering markup on the server and integrating client\-side interactivity directly into Rust code. The framework supports module\-based routing, a component library, and asset bundling, offering a comprehensive solution for web development in Rust.

## Key points

- Full\-stack Rust framework with server\-side rendering and integrated client interactivity.
- Reduces boilerplate by allowing components to query databases directly on the server.
- Client\-side interactivity is achieved via Rust expressions translated to JavaScript, without requiring a WASM bundle or client build step.
- Offers module\-based routing that can be inferred from the project's module structure.
- Includes a vendored component library \(Topcoat UI\) that can be customized directly within the project.
