If you add the new micro frameworks and Rails/Django-like frameworks to the pre-existing Flask-like frameworks (Actix, Axum, etc.), then you can see that the web backend development story in Rust is really starting to feel robust.
Rust is a fantastic language to write backend logic in. It's incredibly fast and can serve thousands of requests per second from the tiniest VMs.
The language has the right abstractions, is not difficult to write (it's similar to writing Golang or Java), and results in code with far fewer defects.
It also has a db! macro that lets you write sql and it maps it to rust structs and fns, I've made some improvements to the macro here https://github.com/swlkr/static_sqlite

Rust is a great place to be for web development.
