Requirements

• tsync (see install section)

Install

sh cargo install create-rust-app

Quick start

```sh

Creates a new rust+react project

create-rust-app my-todo-app

.. select plugins, etc.

Code-gen resources for your project

cd ./my-todo-app create-rust-app

.. select resource type / properties

```

  • Routing (via react-router-dom)
  • Typed react-query hooks generation ($ cd my_project && create-rust-app, then select "Generate react-query hooks")
  • Update to latest create-react-app (generated frontend is not ejected from create-react-app)
• Resource creation ($ cd my_project && create-rust-app)
  • CRUD code-gen to reduce boileplate
  • react-query hooks generation for frontend
• Auth plugin
  • Add JWT token-based auth with a simple command
