## What it is
A CLI scaffolding tool that generates a modern fullstack web app with a Rust backend (actix-web or poem) and a React/TypeScript frontend in one command. It includes code generation for database models, typed API hooks, and plugins for auth, mail, and more.

## Use cases
- scaffold a rust and react fullstack web app
- generate a rust backend with react frontend from one command
- set up jwt authentication in a rust web app
- generate diesel database structs and typescript definitions
- create a fullstack todo app with rust
- bootstrap a rust web project with vite and react

## When to choose
- starting a new fullstack Rust + React project from scratch
- you want batteries-included auth, migrations, and codegen out of the box
- you prefer actix-web with a Vite-powered React frontend

## When to avoid
- adding Rust to an existing frontend project
- you use a backend framework other than actix-web or poem
- you need a non-React frontend framework

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: web-framework, auth, orm, templating, ssr, build-tool, cli
- domain: web-development, developer-tools, backend, frontend
- platform: rust, cli, cross-platform
- tags: scaffolding, react, typescript, diesel, actix-web, fullstack, vite, project-generator, code-generation
