When will the stable version 1.0.0 will come out ...?

I am a backend developer. I use python(FastAPI, Django DRF ).

I have recently started learning Rust. I think the best way to learn Rust is to
switch my backend development language to rust.

I love Rust compile time memory safety.

I just need a django like framework in Rust.
That's when I stumbled upon cot and it is amazing.

But, the documentation seems incomplete and then I noticed that there is even a version one.

Then I discovered again that the framework has just been released in 2025 february.

So, With all the love from my heart for you all brave developers( who took on the challenge to

Create the Rust web framework that a Lazy Django developer can use),

IS THERE ANY DATE FOR THE VERSION 1.0.0 ..?

Hey @abdulkuddusa4, thanks for your interest in cot. @m4tx or @seqre will have a better answer for this, I cant say for sure when 1.0.0 will be out. We have a roadmap(Roadmap) that needs some updating, but the framework is still not production grade ready as some features are still lacking. However, it's still usable to some extent. You're welcome to start porting your django/fastapi code to cot and report any issues you face. We value feedback and will use that in driving development as well as prioritizing features/issues.

Hello @abdulkuddusa4, we appreciate your interest in and nice words about Cot! The project is still in its early stages, as you've noticed yourself, it's only few months from the first release. There are still a ton of features we want to implement which will take time, then the framework needs to be used for a while in the ecosystem to discover and fix any bugs, then we need to ensure that everything is stable. We want this to succeed, but it's only a project we're able to work in our free time, so there's a limit in how much we can accomplish ourselves.

Having said all of that, I expect that the 1.0.0 will be released at the earliest in one/two years, assuming from the current pace of development. Once we get more community interest and more folks start contributing, that could change for the better! So if you know communities of folks who could contribute, please share a word about Cot!
