General

There are plenty of web application frameworks out there. Other big examples are warp, actix-web, or rocket.

For our workshop, we will use axum, the web framework created by the folks from tokio, as we have the most knowledge about with it (If you get stuck and e.g. need help).

But you can translate features, that axum offers also to the other frameworks in the one or the other way. In the end the only thing you need is a framework that is capable of sending html over the wire and process incoming http requests, which all of the above frameworks are capable of.
