What C++ library do you wish existed but hasn’t been created yet?
Take a look at Wt Webtoolkit. It can do exactly this (and a lot more) https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt
-
Nui C++ User Interface Library
How does this compare with WebToolkit?
- Has anyone embedded a web-UI into a C++ project?
-
Cheerp 3.0: The most advanced C++ compiler for the Web now permissively licensed
How is this much different than wt [1] or compiling qt to emscripten? Sincere question.
- Launch HN: Pynecone (YC W23) – Web Apps in Pure Python
- Uses of Rust and C++ that only one has?
-
Who is using C++ for web development?
https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt (has support for HTTP/S)
Not sure who uses but there's an interesting toolkit for it: https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt
-
Ask HN: What's the best source code you've read?
Linux Kernel source is very good.
Wt[0] source code is also good.
-
Ask HN: Who is using C++ as the main language for new project?
Apparently they're using Wt, "webtoolkit".
> Wt is a web GUI library in modern C++. Quickly develop highly interactive web UIs with widgets, without having to write a single line of JavaScript.

Experience using crow as web server
I looked at oatpp and drogon, which are both great, but feel too high-level for my purposes. I tried drogon and got something working, but it feels like too much for my requirements, as in particular I'd like to slot in my choice of Json and message-body handling. C.f. the simple approach in Crow, which I easily understand and build on.
-
REST APIs using C++. (Is this even done much?)
Lots of other options have been mentioned, but I'll throw Oat++ into the mix. I used it for this purpose and it was reasonably painless.
-
Server with oat++. Installation. CmakeLists.txt
cd "some/temp/path/for/repositories" git clone https://github.com/oatpp/oatpp.git cd oatpp mkdir build && cd build cmake .. (sudo) make install
-
How to use C++ as the backend for web dev?
Maybe use something like https://oatpp.io to create a REST API: C++ in the backend with this library to create a REST server, and the JavaScript/TypeScript frontend to ask for the information.
-
making a web server in c++?
I've used OATPP ( https://github.com/oatpp/oatpp ) which worked nicely for setting up simple rest interfaces. Supports things like swagger & websockets out of the box. It's also on Conan which is nice if you use cmake. I can't speak to it's performance but it has about a 1mb binary size footprint.
