> The axum::debug_handler macro is invaluable to debug type errors (there's some with axum too), like for example, accidentally having a non-Send type slip in. Heh, yeah. For my recent project where I explored implementing the same little app in a few different languages[0], I chose Axum for the rust version. The whole "extractor" system was pretty magical, and when I had this exact issue (non-Send argument), the compiler error was totally useless. I did see the docs about adding this extra macro crate for error messages but it seemed like a bit of a red flag that the framework was going against the grain of the language. Still, on the whole, I did enjoy working with Axum. [0] https://github.com/losvedir/transit-lang-cmp

This is great! Just pushed up a commit that uses it and updated the benchmarks[0]. I'm seeing a 1.6X - 2X improvement in overall performance. Not bad for a drop-in replacement. And since it's based on serde, I trust it, and I feel like trying out a different JSON library is within scope for me of not just "gaming the benchmarks", as this is actually something I'd now consider using at work. It's not quite as high as I was seeing with `jiffy` (3,800 req/sec here vs 4,000+ with jiffy), but I'm not confident that was a totally fair comparison. `jiffy` doesn't integrate as nicely with Phoenix, so I was just calling `:jiffy.encode(...)` in the controller and then doing a `text(...)` response. I need to double-check if `json(...)` is doing more work here. [0] https://github.com/losvedir/transit-lang-cmp/commit/140d693b...
