Where to find Cpp Backend with websocket JSON examples?
If you're looking for a simple websocket lib with minimal dependencies, https://github.com/machinezone/IXWebSocket might be a good choice. It doesn't need Boost or ASIO (most other websocket libs do), TLS and ZLIB are optional.

Linker errors in a new project when including a library
When I try building the project using the main example the library provides, it gives me these errors (image). Here is main.cpp from the repo. The developer responded to someone else having the same issue with the code I quoted in my post, but like I said, I have no idea what to do with it. If I can figure out where to put it and get main.cpp working, I can go from there.

Libwebsockets
This is just the endemic result of C++ lacking a package manager.
Every library starts out small, adds its own vendored utilities, adds its own dependencies, and eventually becomes boost.
To be fair to this project, theyve worked quite hard to make the library consumable by others… but yes, its hard to look at the code like https://github.com/warmcat/libwebsockets/blob/50ba61082dc40b...
…and not go… really? As part of the core of libwebsocket?
When you read the justification it’s mostly “well we have a good framework now, so why not use it for other things too?”
C++ life.
