Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.
Pistache
- REST APIs using C++. (Is this even done much?)

C++ backend with React.js frontend
A coworker at my last job used pistache.io as a web back-end framework for C++ to good effect. I have no idea if it's the best, or even good, but I know that he made a project with it that I was calling into (I was building the front-end) and it worked.

I'm not sure what to study now ):
There are some C++ API frameworks like Pistache or Restbed (full list here) to get started. If I should be 100% honest, I don't think C++ is worth for APIs as we have easier solutions with the same performance nowadays (like Go and Rust), but I think we should try everything, right?

cpprestsdk in maintenance mode
If you need an embedded C++ HTTP server then there are plenty of libraries/frameworks (in random order): Crow, RESTinio, Boost.Beast, cpp-httplib, http_backend, Pistache, RestBed, served, proxygen, Simple-Web-Server, drogon, oat++.

Ask HN: C/C++ web framework with routes (like Node.js, Python Flask)
We've used this and like it so far: https://github.com/meltwater/served
-
Have there been any attempts to build a REST API service on top of either Boost.asio or Boost.beast?
Just found the link: github

How to use C++ as backend
So, if you're going that route, you can use one of the many HTTP wrappers around Boost::ASIO or something purpose-built like Pistache or Casablanca.
What are some alternatives?
Crow - Crow is very fast and easy to use C++ micro web framework (inspired by Python Flask)
C++ REST SDK - The C++ REST SDK is a Microsoft project for cloud-based client-server communication in native code using a modern asynchronous C++ API design. This project aims to help C++ developers connect to and interact with services.
Oat++ - 🌱Light and powerful C++ web framework for highly scalable and resource-efficient web application. It's zero-dependency and easy-portable.
Restbed - Corvusoft's Restbed framework brings asynchronous RESTful functionality to C++14 applications.
µWebSockets - Simple, secure & standards compliant web server for the most demanding of applications
drogon - Drogon: A C++14/17 based HTTP web application framework running on Linux/macOS/Unix/Windows [Moved to: https://github.com/drogonframework/drogon]
Mongoose - Embedded Web Server
Civetweb - Embedded C/C++ web server
RESTinio - Cross-platform, efficient, customizable, and robust asynchronous HTTP(S)/WebSocket server C++ library with the right balance between performance and ease of use
