Easily create websites or REST APIs in pure c++ with the library VWeb. Website views are built in a SwiftUI like manner. The backend can run on on HTTP only or on HTTP and HTTPS both.

In Development.

This library is currently still in development.

Documentation.

Full documentation at Github Pages.

Project hierarchy.

When creating a website using vweb it is advised to create the following project hierarchy. The server.js file must either reside at ./server/server.js or at ./server.js.

website/
    server/
        config.js - Use this file to define the Server object and export it in module.exports either under the attribute `server` or as the export itself.
        endpoints.js - For example use this file to define your endpoints.
        server.js - Use this file to import the server and require all endpoints. This file must be named server.js for the vweb cli.
    ...

config.js

// Imports.
const vweb = require("@vandenberghinc/vweb");

// Initialize the server.
const server = new vweb.Server({
    ...
})

// Exports.
module.exports = {
    server,
};

endpoints.js

// Imports.
const {server} = require("./config.js");

// Create an endpoint.
server.endpoint({
    ...
});

server.js

// Imports.
const {server} = require("./config.js");

// Load endpoints.
require("./endpoints.js");
