Show HN: Rust Web Framework

Small aerospace company. We had a really old school CEO at the time the project was started - didn’t even want us using GitHub since it was on the cloud. Everything runs on an on-premise IBM i Series (AS400 / IBM Mainframe).

I pushed hard and was able to get us to the point where stuff runs in PASE with modern languages (like PHP).

It’s not any specific licensing issue, just organizational distrust of anything that isn’t paid for.

Thanks, that is quite fascinating! I recently spoke with a very old school IT guy who was setting up his brother's IT stuff for a new business, and he is militant about on-prem and other stuff too. It's a very interesting mentality, though so foreign to me as I strongly gravitate toward FOSS instead of away from it.

Thanks for sharing that. AS400 always catches my eye after doing in internship at IBM, working with AS400 back in 2000.

Are there not any Laravel shops that would take your money so you can "pay" for it?

Hah, I’m currently trying that tactic to get us on Bookstack for our SOPs. Never thought about doing it with Laravel. Could work!
