## What it is
Shuttle is a Rust-native cloud development platform and framework that lets developers build and deploy backends without writing infrastructure files. Resources like databases are provisioned via code annotations, and a CLI handles local runs and deployment.

## Use cases
- deploy a rust backend without writing infrastructure config
- provision a postgres database from a rust function signature
- quickly prototype and ship a rust web api
- run and debug a rust service locally before deploying
- self-host my rust app on my own cloud instead of a vendor
- manage secrets and logs for a rust deployment from the cli

## When to choose
- you write Rust backends and want zero-config deployment and resource provisioning
- you want the fastest possible path from Rust project init to a deployed service
- you want to avoid writing Dockerfiles, YAML, or Terraform for Rust apps
- you want a PaaS that also supports self-hosting without vendor lock-in

## When to avoid
- your backend is not written in Rust
- you need fine-grained control over infrastructure-as-code definitions
- you require a multi-language or polyglot deployment platform
- you need mature enterprise compliance features or guaranteed SLAs from an open-source project
