It looks like a good idea to me if you're developing something that requires it. Nevertheless, most developers which do web development they require something easier to develop with mainly in the backend. Nowadays TS (JS) and Python are widely used do to its versatility.

Why do you need a separate back-end in Rust? Nothing beats Next.js + React server components for me.

That's the first time in many years that I see someone saying they like RSC.

What is there not to like? RSCs simplify state management by so much. There is no longer any need for zustand, redux, etc.

I was looking for a solution like this as rspc isn't maintained anymore. I love how clean it looks. But I am a bit new to rust and I am not sure about poem. Axum is very popular and seems like a stable crate. Can you share your thoughts on Poem? Does it feel outdated or unstable? Does it cover all your needs?

Anything beats next and react server components for me. It’s a mess of lock-in and complexity that brings very little. It also changes all the time, the maintenance cost is _crazy_ compared to almost all other mainstream options, the ROI is super low.

As someone who lightly dabbles in React my interpretation of that comment is “what’s not to like? It solves at least some of the problems React itself introduced!”

Really few applications ever needed redux, whatever the backend

As someone who has been using it professionally for years, you’re correct
