This is me messing around with code from Hands-On Microservices With Rust to explore Rust further, and the hyper crate.
You'd probably be better off looking at Hands-On Microservices With Rust unless you really like half-baked comments mixed in with your code.
However, this builds and runs in a Docker container which is a neat change from the book.
Run
docker build -t hyper_server_test .
then
docker run -it --rm -p 8000:8000 --name hyper-server-test-running hyper_server_test
to run it. Going to localhost:8000 should show you a white page saying "Rust Microservice FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111", which is nice.
This will probably be replaced by something better, or used as a base for future projects.
