+title: Deploy a Rust Axum App
+---
+
+[Axum](https://docs.rs/axum/latest/axum) is a web framework for Rust that focuses on ergonomics and modularity. It is designed to work with [tokio](https://docs.rs/tokio/1.40.0/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/tokio/index.html) and [hyper](https://docs.rs/hyper/1.4.1/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/hyper/index.html).
+
+This guide covers how to deploy an Axum app to Railway in four ways:
+
+1. [One-click deploy from a template](#one-click-deploy-from-a-template).
+2. [From a GitHub repository](#deploy-from-a-github-repo).
+3. [Using the CLI](#deploy-from-the-cli).
+4. [Using a Dockerfile](#use-a-dockerfile).
+
+Now, let's create an Axum app! 🚀
+
+## Create an Axum App
+
+**Note:** If you already have an Axum app locally or on GitHub, you can skip this step and go straight to the [Deploy Axum App to Railway](#deploy-the-axum-app-to-railway).
+
+To create a new Axum app, ensure that you have [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) installed on your machine.
+
+Run the following command in your terminal to create a new Axum app:
+
+```bash
+cargo new helloworld --bin
+```
+
+The command creates a new binary-based Cargo project in a `helloworld` directory.
+
+Next, `cd` into the directory and add `axum` and `tokio` as dependencies by running the following command:
+
+```bash
+cargo add axum
+cargo add tokio --features full
+```
+
+This will add `axum` and `tokio` as dependencies, with `tokio` configured to use the "full" feature, which includes its complete set of capabilities. You’ll find both dependencies listed in your `Cargo.toml` file.
+
+These dependencies are required to create a bare minimum axum application.
+
+### Modify the Application File
+
+Next, open the app in your IDE and navigate to the `src/main.rs` file.
+
+Replace the content with the code below:
+
+```rust
+use axum::{
+    routing::get,
+    Router,
+};
+
+#[tokio::main]
+async fn main() {
+    // build our application with a single route
+    let app = Router::new().route("/", get(root));
+
+    // Get the port number from the environment, default to 3000
+    let port: u16 = std::env::var("PORT")
+        .unwrap_or_else(|_| "3000".to_string()) // Get the port as a string or default to "3000"
+        .parse() // Parse the port string into a u16
+        .expect("Failed to parse PORT");
+
+    // Create a socket address (IPv6 binding)
+    let address = SocketAddr::from(([0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], port));
+    let listener = tokio::net::TcpListener::bind(&address).await.unwrap();
+
+    // Run the app with hyper, listening on the specified address
+    axum::serve(listener, app).await.unwrap();
+}
+
+// basic handler that responds with a static string
+async fn root() -> &'static str {
+    "Hello World, from Axum!"
+}
+```
+
+The code above sets up a simple web server using the Axum framework and the Tokio async runtime. The server listens on the port gotten from the environment variable, `PORT` and defaults to `3000` if there's none set. 
+
+It defines one route, `/`, which is mapped to a handler function called `root`. When a GET request is made to the root path, the handler responds with the static string "Hello World, from Axum!". 
+
+The Router from Axum is used to configure the route, and `tokio::net::TcpListener` binds the server to listen for connections on all available network interfaces (address `0.0.0.0`).
+
+The asynchronous runtime, provided by the `#[tokio::main]` macro, ensures the server can handle requests efficiently. The `axum::serve` function integrates with the Hyper server to actually process requests.
+
+### Run the Axum App locally
+
+Run the following command in the `helloworld` directory via the terminal:
+
+```bash
+cargo run
+```
+
+All the dependencies will be installed and your app will be launched.
+
+Open your browser and go to `http://localhost:3000` to see your app.
+
+## Deploy the Axum App to Railway
+
+Railway offers multiple ways to deploy your Axum app, depending on your setup and preference. 
+
+### One-Click Deploy from a Template
+
+If you’re looking for the fastest way to get started, the one-click deploy option is ideal. 
+
+Click the button below to begin:
+
+[![Deploy on Railway](https://railway.app/button.svg)](https://railway.app/new/template/5HAMxu)
+
+We highly recommend that [you eject from the template after deployment](/guides/deploy#eject-from-template-repository) to create a copy of the repo on your GitHub account.
+
+**Note:** You can also choose from a <a href="https://railway.app/templates?q=axum" target="_blank">variety of Axum templates</a> created by the community.
+
+### Deploy from the CLI
+
+1. **Install the Railway CLI**:
+    - <a href="/guides/cli#installing-the-cli" target="_blank">Install the CLI</a> and <a href="/guides/cli#authenticating-with-the-cli" target="_blank">authenticate it</a> using your Railway account.
+2. **Initialize a Railway Project**:
+    - Run the command below in your Axum app directory. 
+        ```bash
+        railway init
+        ```
+    - Follow the prompts to name your project.
+    - After the project is created, click the provided link to view it in your browser.
+3. **Deploy the Application**:
+    - Use the command below to deploy your app:
+        ```bash
+        railway up
+        ```
+    - This command will scan, compress and upload your app's files to Railway. You’ll see real-time deployment logs in your terminal.
+4. **Verify the Deployment**:
+    - Once the deployment completes, go to **View logs** to check if the server is running successfully.
+
+    **Note:** During the deployment process, Railway will automatically [detect that it’s a Rust app](https://nixpacks.com/docs/providers/rust).
+5. **Set Up a Public URL**:
+    - Navigate to the **Networking** section under the [Settings](/overview/the-basics#service-settings) tab of your new service.
+    - Click [Generate Domain](/guides/public-networking#railway-provided-domain) to create a public URL for your app.

+
+### Deploy from a GitHub Repo
+
+To deploy an Axum app to Railway directly from GitHub, follow the steps below:
+
+1. **Create a New Project on Railway**:
+    - Go to <a href="https://railway.app/new" target="_blank">Railway</a> to create a new project.
+2. **Deploy from GitHub**: 
+    - Select **Deploy from GitHub repo** and choose your repository.
+        - If your Railway account isn’t linked to GitHub yet, you’ll be prompted to do so.
+3. **Deploy the App**: 
+    - Click **Deploy** to start the deployment process.
+    - Once the deployed, a Railway [service](/guides/services) will be created for your app, but it won’t be publicly accessible by default.
+4. **Verify the Deployment**:
+    - Once the deployment completes, go to **View logs** to check if the server is running successfully.
+
+    **Note:** During the deployment process, Railway will automatically [detect that it’s a Rust app](https://nixpacks.com/docs/providers/rust).
+5. **Set Up a Public URL**:
+    - Navigate to the **Networking** section under the [Settings](/overview/the-basics#service-settings) tab of your new service.
+    - Click [Generate Domain](/guides/public-networking#railway-provided-domain) to create a public URL for your app.
+
+### Use a Dockerfile
+
+1. Create a `Dockerfile` in the `helloworld` or Axum app's root directory.
+2. Add the content below to the `Dockerfile`:
+    ```bash
+    FROM lukemathwalker/cargo-chef:latest-rust-1 AS chef
+
+    # Create and change to the app directory.
+    WORKDIR /app
+
+    FROM chef AS planner
+    COPY . ./
+    RUN cargo chef prepare --recipe-path recipe.json
+
+    FROM chef AS builder 
+    COPY --from=planner /app/recipe.json recipe.json
+
+    # Build dependencies - this is the caching Docker layer!
+    RUN cargo chef cook --release --recipe-path recipe.json
+
+    # Build application
+    COPY . ./
+    RUN cargo build --release
+
+    CMD ["./target/release/helloworld"]
+    ```
+4. Either deploy via the CLI or from GitHub.
+
+Railway automatically detects the `Dockerfile`, [and uses it to build and deploy the app.](/guides/dockerfiles)
+
+**Note:** Railway supports also <a href="/guides/services#deploying-a-public-docker-image" target="_blank">deployment from public and private Docker images</a>.
+
+This guide covers the main deployment options on Railway. Choose the approach that suits your setup, and start deploying your Axum apps seamlessly!
