nickel.rs 
nickel.rs is a simple and lightweight foundation for web applications written in Rust. Its API is inspired by the popular express framework for JavaScript.
Hello world
#[macro_use] extern crate nickel;
use nickel::{Nickel, HttpRouter};
fn main() {
let mut server = Nickel::new();
server.get("**", middleware!("Hello World"));
server.listen("127.0.0.1:6767");
}
Dependencies
You'll need to create a Cargo.toml that looks like this;
[package]
name = "my-nickel-app"
version = "0.0.1"
authors = ["yourname"]
[dependencies.nickel]
version = "*"
# If you are using the 'nightly' rust channel you can uncomment
# the line below to activate unstable features
# features = ["unstable"]
# Some examples require the `rustc_serialize` crate, which will
# require uncommenting the lines below
# [dependencies]
# rustc-serialize = "*"
You can then compile this using Cargo build and run it using Cargo run. After it's running you should visit http://localhost:6767 to see your hello world!
