Welcome to the Cosmos repository! Here, you'll find a web ChatGPT clone entirely crafted using Rust and HTMX, where technology meets simplicity and performance. 🚀
Cosmos is my latest experiment in cloning the abilities of OpenAI's ChatGPT. It represents the fourth iteration in a series of clones, each built with different tech stacks to evaluate their functionality in creating a ChatGPT-like application.
In this repository, you will find a Rust-based server leveraging the Axum framework combined with HTMX, providing a Rusty web development experience. From database operations to streaming responses, this project covers a broad spectrum of backend functionalities and real-time web interactions.
So, for Rust enthusiasts and web developers alike, dive in to explore a world where web development is redefined with the power of Rust!
- Rust with Axum Framework: A fast and reliable server that's all about performance and simplicity.
- SQLite: A lightweight yet powerful database for all your data persistence needs.
- Server Sent Events (SSE): Real-time streaming made easy to bring life to the ChatGPT interactions.
- HTMX: No hefty JavaScript frameworks needed—HTMX keeps interactions snappy with simple HTML attributes.
sqlx: Direct and type-safe SQL queries and migrations.tera: A templating engine inspired by Jinja2, for rendering the HTML views.axum: A web application framework that's easy to use and incredibly fast.
For those eyeing some client-side WASM magic, you might also want to check out Yew or Leptos for more complex applications.
