Top 23 C++ HTTP Server Projects

drogon
Drogon: A C++14/17/20 based HTTP web application framework running on Linux/macOS/Unix/Windows
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.

InfluxDB
Purpose built for real-time analytics at any scale. InfluxDB Platform is powered by columnar analytics, optimized for cost-efficient storage, and built with open data standards.
-
POCO
The POCO C++ Libraries are powerful cross-platform C++ libraries for building network- and internet-based applications that run on desktop, server, mobile, IoT, and embedded systems.

They aren't much, but I think they are at least proof that I can do work, much better indicator than my anemic resume. Though my pull requests looks trivial, I spent several days tracking down the root cause of the bug.

evpp
A modern C++ network library for developing high performance network services in TCP/UDP/HTTP protocols.
-
I'm investigating using C++ to build a REST server, and would love to know of people's experiences with Crow-- or whether they would recommend something else as a "medium-level" abstraction C++ web server. As background, I started off experimenting with Python/FastAPI, which is great, but there is too much friction to translate from pybind11-exported C++ objects to the format that FastAPI expects, and, of course, there are inherent performance limitations using Python, which could impact scaling up if the project were to be successful.
