Strut was created to address real pain points.

When I began developing backend services in Rust, I quickly realized how much boilerplate stood between me and my first meaningful line of business logic. Before I could build anything useful, I had to set up configuration, logging, and manually wire up persistence, messaging, and alerting. That meant introducing an async runtime, and then worrying about how to gracefully shut down all those external connections when the application exited. And once I finally had everything working, I found myself dreading the thought of repeating this setup for the next backend—copy-pasting all that code was hardly ideal.
