Web developers have zero issues with using Rust for web development though. The Rocket web framework is rather intuitive. I even built my website entirely in Rust with it.
Unfortunately, Rocket does not appear to be on track to work on stable Rust for the foreseeable future.
The website stores all the content in a database, uses handlebar templates to generate HTML pages, stores the generated HTML pages in a concurrent hash map compressed with the native Rust implementation of Zopfli, and only regenerates pages after a set amount of time -- all in pure Rust. I can serve an unrealistic amount of requests per second -- just bottlenecked by a consumer-grade network connection.
If the timestamp has expired and a user requests expired content, only then will that page be re-generated, re-compressed and updated. Without this, I would have to re-generate and re-compress the content each time I get a request.
