A note-taking app backend using Rust (sh.itjust.works)

Hi everyone I was thinking of creating a backend module that has functione for a note taking app (search, sort, etc). So anyone can implement a ui on top of it.

I have some basic understanding of rust (made a just-working chip-8 emulator). But I've never used SQL or other database.

Is this plausible? Is there a similar project that I can use as reference? What are the mistakes I should avoid?

It is difficult to imagine it without an approximate idea of the way of interaction with it.

A common exercise in programming is creating a task list... Which by the way I just searched out of curiosity and I found this as first result, and doesn't look so bad taking a first look https://github.com/dezoito/rust-todo-list
