Experience using crow as web server
Alternatives at the low to medium level of abstraction include civetweb and mongoose, which have a common ancestor. Both of these appear to be C rather than C++, but seem to be production quality and well-documented. Another C library is cpp-httplib, which is probably too low-level for me.

REST APIs using C++. (Is this even done much?)
I use this all the time to expose an admin rest interface to my public installations.

PocketPy: A Lightweight(~5000 LOC) Python Implementation in C++17
Every one of these libraries uses CMake to make it easier for end users to consume their libraries. In fact your example uses CMake as well such that I can consume it the way I describe above.

How to handle HTTPS - to dynamic link, or find a better solution?
Through development I've been making requests to my locally hosted sever using cpphttplib via HTTP and always had the intention of using HTTPS once my website was live. Not the smartest idea to leave this until the end, I know.

Why is there no simple http request/response library?
Have you tried searching the internet? https://github.com/yhirose/cpp-httplib

Issues with libssl on Mac
I'm new to C++, and have been trying to make a simple HTTP request. I stumbled on cpp-httplib and decided to try it out.

game development with c
Here's a framework that's cool: https://github.com/MrFrenik/gunslinger/. We have a great Discord community, too. Even if you don't end up using it, there are plenty of people who are willing to offer guidance regardless :). Invite link is on the author's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_HxKDNuCqA
- Do you have any C game frameworks, or should I just learn C++?

Magnum: Lightweight, modular C++11 graphics middleware for games/visualization
Check out gunslinger, a pure C99 game framework, with a very clean design.
The development has been making huge strides and they have a fairly active discord channel:

Looking for a game engine programmable in C
Make your own. If you really want to make a game in C, this may be the best option. Depending on how complex the game is that you want to make, this could be an enormous task, or not too big of a deal, in some cases it could even be easier than learning a game engine. You can use frameworks like Gunslinger to make it easier, as well. If you need guidance, the Gunslinger community is friendly and accepting of beginners :).
-
Generic data type in c
That being said, you may have your requirements satisfied with tagged unions which consists in implementing a struct with an anonymous union and label (like an enum) to keep track of what data is inside the union, this works really well when you know beforehand which data types you want to support. Another technique could be using macros, like the containers on the gunslinger framework, however I have never implemented something like this. Lastly you can always use void pointers, however you may need to be more clever to achieve it (I almost never use them).

What is your own favorite C project?
Some of my favorites are: sokol/pacman.c, Gunslinger, and gb

Bash and Powershell remote scripts to install header-only C and C++ libraries from github repo.
To install non exotic library from a github repo, specify just the repo-owner/repo-name or the absolute github link to the repo. E.g. to install gunslinger and stb from master branch

A Header Only OpenGL Framework Written In C
Looking quickly at this lib, functions of the API are not static: https://github.com/MrFrenik/gunslinger/blob/d5ebcce0647e97badc9337749d7cd9f5810eecfa/gs.h#L1415, so it might lead to ODR violation.
