Hello!

I have gotten my feet wet with rust and I have a pretty solid api written in Axum.

I want to write a frontend for it, and I am curious about the community’s experience with yew.

It seems to be the most viable option for UIs in rust.

I could just slap together a react project, but I am really trying to deepen my skills in rust.

So, y’all tell me, is yew worth it?

Here are a few topics I am concerned about.

  1. Compile time
  2. Readability
  3. Write time
  4. Performance (compared to standardized js frameworks)
  5. Future Opportunities (do we see yew holding a decent place in web dev)

If anyone has an opinions I would love to read them? Tell me why you hate it or love it or why you want to rule the world!!
