AI coding tools can accelerate Rust development—but only if we use them with intention, discipline, and a Rust-specific mindset. In this talk, we’ll explore battle-tested best practices for integrating Claude Code into a professional Axum development workflow without compromising on Rust’s core values: correctness, clarity, and maintainability.
We’ll discuss how to leverage Claude for the work it excels at—scaffolding new Axum services, generating typed data models, producing serde integrations, writing tests, and creating clean project structures—while keeping humans in control of the parts that truly matter in Rust: ownership, lifetimes, API design, error semantics, and crate ecosystem choices.
The talk explores how Rust’s type system and memory safety can be leveraged to enforce mandatory guardrails at the infrastructure level, where traditional frameworks often fall short.
This session we will delve into the sometimes murky world of procedural macros - showing some of the great tooling available for understanding the code generated, such as cargo expand, and the key building blocks we will need for writing our own.
