justapi Runtime

A production-grade Python web framework written in Rust. Rust owns the network/protocol stack; Python executes only application logic.

10-20x faster than FastAPI — see BENCHMARKS.md.

Project Status

Phase 40 — The JustAPI 2.0 "Singularity" Release (ready for publish)

All 39 prior phases complete. CI/CD pipeline overhauled: uv-based builds, cargo-deny security audit, Miri memory safety, OIDC trusted publishing to PyPI. See PLAN.md for the full roadmap.

Architecture

Kernel → epoll/io_uring → Connection Manager → tokio task
  → TLS (rustls) → HTTP parse (hyper) → Router (matchit)
  → Middleware chain (Rust: auth/CORS/rate-limit/compression)
  → Python boundary (typed, zero-copy request view via PyO3)
  → Application code (native Python handler)
  → Rust serializer (serde_json/simd-json)
  → Response write → Socket

justapi provides a single native Python API (Tier B) — the FastAPI replacement that runs entirely in Rust with zero-copy Python integration.

Quick Start

Python Native API

from justapi import JustAPIApp

app = JustAPIApp()

@app.get("/hello/{name}")
async def hello_handler(request):
    name = request["path_params"]["name"]
    return {"message": f"Hello {name}!"}

app.run("127.0.0.1:8080")

Install the package:

pip install justapi           # via pip
uv pip install justapi        # via uv (recommended)
uvx justapi create my_app     # no install needed

Or build from source with maturin:

cd crates/justapi-py
maturin develop --release

CLI

# Run server with Rust-defined routes
justapi serve --addr 127.0.0.1:8080

# Generate a client SDK from your API
justapi gen-client --lang python
