#axum

SQLx is an awesome crate for interacting with databases in Rust with compile time checks. In this blog post, we will learn how to use it in an Axum backend to store and retrieve data from a database.

The example will be storing submitted contact forms from the previous post about Axum.

During the SQLx integration, we will learn about states and returning JSON in Axum.

How hard can it be to write a web backend in Rust? We will try to answer this question through an example.
