Web service that displays the hit count by using Axum, Tokio, Rust.

This is a very simple web service that we use for testing our systems.

## Steps

Run the service using the default address 0.0.0.0:8080:

```sh
cargo run
```

Browse <https://localhost:8080/count>

You should see a web page that displays the hit count.

Use your browser to reload the web page.

You should see the hit count increase by one.

## Options

Run the service using a command line option for a custom address:

```sh
cargo run -- "1.2.3.4:5678"
```

Run the service using an environment variable for a custom address:

```sh
export ADDRESS="1.2.3.4:5678"
cargo run
```
