We're literally in a thread on converting legacy C projects to idiomatic Rust? It seems many people are working on this same problem.

There are plenty of Rust based reverse proxies out there, why do you need to specifically rewrite nginx? You could also write a config adapter to Caddy, there are a billion options, but this is a wasted effort. The people who want to stick to their nginx configs won't use your project ever, and the people who actually care about security aren't going to use a vibe coded project.

I have no idea why you are making me spell this out, I thought it was pretty obvious.

nit: well-written C projects to legacy Rust
