  • cpp-httplib

    A C++ header-only HTTP/HTTPS server and client library

    • There are many options, and none of them are close to perfect. I'd rather make a C# server and connect it to C++. If you insist on using C++ for the server, I've enjoyed using cpp-httplib as a client, apparently they have server functionality too.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
