Introduction to Tower and the Service Trait - Rust Networking Components

Explore the Tower library from the Tokio ecosystem in this 32-minute conference talk by Stefan Baumgartner at Rust Linz. Dive into reusable components and abstractions for building networking clients and servers, focusing on use-cases, reading and writing Service trait implementations, and potential drawbacks. Learn about the Tower of Services concept, local services, event handlers, Lambda event parsing, HTTP parsing and responses, error messages, and service cloning. Discover layers, service functions, HTTP servers, and the broader Tower ecosystem. Access additional resources, including slides and example code repositories, to further enhance your understanding of Tower and its applications in Rust development.
