Rust Project Architecture

Core Principles

• Ownership-first — Embrace borrow checker, no unnecessary clones
• Zero-cost abstractions — Newtype, iterators, async/await
• Workspace for scale — Use Cargo workspace for multi-crate projects
• Error precision — thiserror for libs, anyhow for apps
• Async with Tokio — Tokio runtime + tracing for observability
• No backwards compatibility — Delete, don't deprecate. Change directly
• LiteLLM for LLM APIs — Use LiteLLM proxy for all LLM integrations

No Backwards Compatibility

Delete unused code. Change directly. No compatibility layers.

// ❌ BAD: Deprecated attribute kept around
#[deprecated(since = "0.2.0", note = "Use new_function instead")]
pub fn old_function() { ... }

// ❌ BAD: Type alias for renamed types
pub type OldName = NewName; // "for backwards compatibility"

// ❌ BAD: Unused parameters
fn process(_legacy: &str, data: &Data) { ... }

// ❌ BAD: Feature flags for old behavior
#[cfg(feature = "legacy")]
fn old_impl() { ... }

// ✅ GOOD: Just delete and update all usages
pub fn new_function() { ... }
// Then: Find & replace all old_function → new_function

// ✅ GOOD: Remove unused parameters entirely
fn process(data: &Data) { ... }

LiteLLM for LLM APIs

Use LiteLLM proxy. Don't call provider APIs directly.

// src/llm.rs
use async_openai::{Client, config::OpenAIConfig};

pub fn create_client(base_url: &str, api_key: &str) -> Client<OpenAIConfig> {
    let config = OpenAIConfig::new()
        .with_api_base(base_url)  // LiteLLM proxy URL
        .with_api_key(api_key);
    Client::with_config(config)
}

// Usage: connect to LiteLLM, use any model
let client = create_client("http://localhost:4000", &api_key);
let request = CreateChatCompletionRequestArgs::default()
    .model("gpt-4o")  // or "claude-3-opus", "gemini-pro", etc.
    .messages(vec![...])
    .build()?;

Quick Start

1. Initialize Project

# Simple project
cargo new myapp
cd myapp

# Workspace project
mkdir myapp && cd myapp
cargo init --name app

2. Apply Tech Stack

Web Framework Selection

Axum provides the best balance of performance, ergonomics, and Tokio integration for most projects.

Database / ORM Selection

SeaORM is recommended for its Active Record ergonomics, native async support, and seamless Axum integration.

Version Strategy

Always use latest. Never pin in templates.

[dependencies]
tokio = { version = "*", features = ["full"] }
axum = "*"
serde = { version = "*", features = ["derive"] }

# cargo update fetches latest compatible versions
# Cargo.lock ensures reproducible builds

3. Choose Project Structure

Simple Project (Single Crate)

Architecture Layers

main.rs — Entry Point

Wire dependencies, start runtime. No business logic.

// src/main.rs
use anyhow::Result;
use sea_orm::Database;
use tracing_subscriber::{layer::SubscriberExt, util::SubscriberInitExt};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<()> {
    // Initialize tracing
    tracing_subscriber::registry()
        .with(tracing_subscriber::fmt::layer())
        .init();

    // Load config
    let config = myapp::config::load()?;

    // Connect to database (SeaORM)
    let db = Database::connect(&config.database_url).await?;

    // Build application state
    let state = myapp::AppState::new(db);

    // Build router
    let app = myapp::router::build(state);

    // Run server
    let listener = tokio::net::TcpListener::bind(&config.listen_addr).await?;
    tracing::info!("listening on {}", config.listen_addr);
    axum::serve(listener, app).await?;

    Ok(())
}

lib.rs — Library Root

Re-export public API, define AppState.

// src/lib.rs
pub mod config;
pub mod db;
pub mod error;
pub mod handlers;
pub mod models;  // SeaORM entities
pub mod router;
pub mod services;

use sea_orm::DatabaseConnection;
use std::sync::Arc;

pub struct AppState {
    pub db: DatabaseConnection,
}

impl AppState {
    pub fn new(db: DatabaseConnection) -> Arc<Self> {
        Arc::new(Self { db })
    }
}

error.rs — Error Handling

// src/error.rs
use axum::{http::StatusCode, response::{IntoResponse, Response}, Json};
use sea_orm::DbErr;
use serde_json::json;

#[derive(Debug, thiserror::Error)]
pub enum AppError {
    #[error("not found: {0}")]
    NotFound(String),

    #[error("validation error: {0}")]
    Validation(String),

    #[error("unauthorized")]
    Unauthorized,

    #[error("internal error")]
    Internal(#[from] anyhow::Error),

    #[error("database error: {0}")]
    Database(#[from] DbErr),
}

impl IntoResponse for AppError {
    fn into_response(self) -> Response {
        let (status, message) = match &self {
            AppError::NotFound(msg) => (StatusCode::NOT_FOUND, msg.clone()),
            AppError::Validation(msg) => (StatusCode::BAD_REQUEST, msg.clone()),
            AppError::Unauthorized => (StatusCode::UNAUTHORIZED, "unauthorized".into()),
            AppError::Internal(_) | AppError::Database(_) => {
                tracing::error!("Internal error: {:?}", self);
                (StatusCode::INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, "internal error".into())
            }
        };

        (status, Json(json!({ "error": message }))).into_response()
    }
}

pub type Result<T> = std::result::Result<T, AppError>;

handlers/ — HTTP Layer

// src/handlers/user.rs
use axum::{extract::{Path, State}, Json};
use std::sync::Arc;
use crate::{error::Result, models::user, services, AppState};

pub async fn get_user(
    State(state): State<Arc<AppState>>,
    Path(id): Path<i64>,
) -> Result<Json<user::Model>> {
    let user = services::user::find_by_id(&state.db, id).await?;
    Ok(Json(user))
}

pub async fn create_user(
    State(state): State<Arc<AppState>>,
    Json(input): Json<CreateUserInput>,
) -> Result<Json<user::Model>> {
    let user = services::user::create(&state.db, input).await?;
    Ok(Json(user))
}

services/ — Business Logic

// src/services/user.rs
use sea_orm::{ActiveModelTrait, DatabaseConnection, EntityTrait, Set};
use crate::{error::{AppError, Result}, models::user};

pub async fn find_by_id(db: &DatabaseConnection, id: i64) -> Result<user::Model> {
    user::Entity::find_by_id(id)
        .one(db)
        .await?
        .ok_or_else(|| AppError::NotFound(format!("user {}", id)))
}

pub async fn create(db: &DatabaseConnection, input: CreateUserInput) -> Result<user::Model> {
    let new_user = user::ActiveModel {
        email: Set(input.email),
        name: Set(input.name),
        ..Default::default()
    };

    let user = new_user.insert(db).await?;
    Ok(user)
}

// Find with relations
pub async fn find_with_posts(db: &DatabaseConnection, id: i64) -> Result<(user::Model, Vec<post::Model>)> {
    user::Entity::find_by_id(id)
        .find_with_related(post::Entity)
        .all(db)
        .await?
        .into_iter()
        .next()
        .ok_or_else(|| AppError::NotFound(format!("user {}", id)))
}
