# Hello World

> Rocket is an async web framework for Rust with a focus on usability, security, extensibility, and speed.

This section revolves around simple Rocket examples you can get quickly started with by following these 3 steps:

1. Initialize a new Rocket project by running the `shuttle init --template rocket` command
2. Copy pasting the contents of the example you want to deploy -- make sure to check the tabs of the snippet(s) to ensure you are copying the right code/file
3. Running the `shuttle deploy` command

> [!TIP]

> If you are looking for step-by-step guides, check out our [Tutorials](https://docs.shuttle.dev/templates/tutorials) section.

You can clone the example below by running the following (you'll need `shuttle` CLI installed):

```bash theme={null}
shuttle init --template rocket
```

```rust main.rs theme={null}
#[macro_use]
extern crate rocket;

#[get("/")]
fn index() -> &'static str {
    "Hello, world!"
}

#[shuttle_runtime::main]
async fn rocket() -> shuttle_rocket::ShuttleRocket {
    let rocket = rocket::build().mount("/hello", routes![index]);

    Ok(rocket.into())
}
```

```toml Cargo.toml theme={null}
[package]
name = "hello-world"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"

[dependencies]
rocket = "0.5.0"
shuttle-rocket = "0.57.0"
shuttle-runtime = "0.57.0"
tokio = "1.26.0"
```
