For my CMS/Webapp framework project I'm using axum to handle the requests and responses. I have a App struct to contain the application state and some logic and a Plugin trait:

struct MyPlugin;

impl Plugin for MyPlugin {
	fn initialize(&self, app: App) {
		// do things like add routes
	}
}

// register it to be run on startup
app.register_plugin(MyPlugin);

With this there are two main problems I need to solve:

• There are two approaches to state: using Router.with_state and Extension. Is using Extension the better method?
• Allowing use of the Router: its methods being self-consuming is tricky, would it be best to provide methods in App and then build it after plugins are run?
