It'd be nice to see more emphasis on Loco integrating with the broader axum and tower ecosystem. For example, I'm the author of axum-login, a crate that provides a generic interface for managing user sessions: it supports arbitrary authn and authz flows ranging from username/password, to LDAP, to OAuth2. I don't see any mention of how I would approach integrating a crate like axum-login with Loco. A blog post that covers examples like this would be helpful toward showing Loco is a complementary part of the larger community it belongs to.

@maxcountryman this is a good idea. would you want to write this with some guidance from us? (we can actually use some of your expertise, and I think, eventhough we have our own login implementation, we'd be happy to replace it with something that's gold standard that comes from the community)

@jondot

I'm using HTMX in my personal pet project and would be up to writing a blog post about it.
What's the process?
Add a markdown file to docs-site/content/blog and open a PR?

Fantastic
Yes just go for it and we’ll help you make it into the website however we can

Would there be any interest in an article regarding "Rust, Loco and Nix(OS): Build & Deployment"?

Just a short article and how/why to use Nix for environments and use that with Loco.

Very interested in seeing a nix flake template specific to getting up and running with loco. I.e. having dependencies like seaorm-cli and loco-cli directly in a dev shell. Even faster getting up and running using loco 😄

I’d be interested to see @ntietz take Loco for a test drive.

My humble contribution:

https://vanhalt.com/post/loco-rs/

Those are the notes I took a few hours ago since I found the project. Forking and seeing how I can contribute.

Thanks for the effort guys!

P.D: I know nothing about Rust. So this is my chance to learn!
