+        <p>
+          Actix comes with a powerful extractor system that extracts data
+          from the incoming HTTP request and passes it to your view functions.
+          Not only does this make for a convenient API but it also means that
+          your view functions can be synchronous code and still benefit
+          from asynchronous IO handling.
