Rust off Rails: The opinionated web stack for the AI era

Rust off Rails is a novel web framework concept that provides Markdown files containing instructions for AI coding agents to build full-stack Rust applications. It emphasizes a structured workflow, automated tests, and pre-selected technology stacks with zero manual framework code written by humans.
Why it matters
This approach represents an emerging paradigm in software development where AI agents act as primary builders guided by strict architectural prose and automated specifications.
A web framework that ships zero lines of code
Rust off Rails is a set of Markdown files that tell coding agents how to build a full-stack Rust web app: one blessed stack, one layout, one way to do each thing. The convention lives in the prose. The agent writes the code.
