protocol
A Rust crate for easy protocol definitions with built-in networking support and middleware.
What is protocol?
Protocol is a Rust crate that provides easy protocol definitions through a custom derive macro, enabling structured data to be serialized and sent over IO streams. It solves the problem of implementing communication protocols by automating trait implementations and offering built-in networking support for TCP and UDP.
Rust developers building networked applications, game servers, or any system requiring structured communication protocols over streams.
Developers choose Protocol for its simplicity in defining protocols with derive macros, built-in networking modules, and extensible middleware, reducing boilerplate and accelerating development of robust communication layers.
