Pistache – modern and elegant HTTP and REST framework for C++

Pistache is a modern and elegant HTTP and REST framework for C++. It provides a clear and pleasant asynchronous API.

Pistache hasn’t yet hit the 1.0 release. This means that the project is unstable but not unusable. In fact, most of the code is production ready

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Modern API providing a low-level HTTP abstraction.
  • A multi-threaded HTTP server to build your APIs.
  • An asynchronous HTTP client to request APIs.
  • An HTTP router to dispatch requests to C++ functions.
  • A REST description DSL to easily define your APIs.
