Does Axum have HTTPS support?

[kaushalyap]

I was looking at this table and notices there is not HTTPS support in Axum, Is this true?

No that is not true, axum can be run over HTTPS. Check out the low-level-rustls and tls-rustls examples.

axum is a bit special in that it doesn't come with its own HTTP server (axum::Server is just a re-export of hyper::Server). Hyper is generic over the underlying transport, ie it can run on any AsyncRead + AsyncWrite. That can be a plain HTTP stream or one that is encrypted.

Generally speaking axum is compatible with any server that supports tower::Service.
