Rust is an extremely powerful and often intimidating language, but it’s particularly well-suited for web services. In this course, instructor Tim McNamara shows you how to get started building and deploying web services written in Rust. Learn how to use the Actix Web framework to create a service that can receive a payload via an HTTP POST request, process it and return JSON. Along the way, you’ll also explore the essentials of stateful endpoints, monitoring and observability, telemetry, testing, deployment, and much more.
This course is integrated with GitHub Codespaces, an instant cloud developer environment that offers all the functionality of your favorite IDE without the need for any local machine setup. With GitHub Codespaces, you can get hands-on practice from any machine, at any time-all while using a tool that you'll likely encounter in the workplace. Check out the "Using GitHub Codespaces with this course" video to learn how to get started.
