Overview

Gize is a backend application ecosystem for Rust, inspired by the productivity of batteries-included frameworks but fully aligned with Rust's philosophy. Start here to understand what Gize is, why it exists, and where it's going.

CLI commands

Every gize command explained: new, make, migrate, serve, doctor and the quality wrappers.

Vision

The problem, the audience, and how Gize compares to Axum, Actix, Loco, Rails and Laravel.

MVP

What the first release does, and deliberately does not do. The Definition of Done.

Roadmap

MVP → Alpha → Beta → RC → v1.0 → v2.0 across 18 months.

Architecture

The 10-crate Cargo workspace and the generated project layout.

Current status

The MVP is functional end-to-end: a Cargo workspace with 10 crates, the core domain model, a safe code-generation engine, and a working CLI (gize new, gize make crud, gize migrate, gize serve, gize doctor). The crates are published on crates.io: install the CLI with "cargo install gize". Clippy clean and validated end-to-end against PostgreSQL.
