What's not clear from the front page. Is it its own Web server? Is it a framework which uses another Web server? I think that would be useful to clarify from the start.

It's very similar to nodejs web frameworks. If you start it you have a working webserver with your application in it.

OK, that makes it clear, because for example Rails require existing Web server in contrast.

I this is quite similar to Rails; by default Rails includes webbrick or puma.

OK, browsing through their code, I see they use Hyper.

But they're still on the previous, non-Tokio release.

Personally I'm more tempted by something like Susanoo: https://github.com/ubnt-intrepid/susanoo/
