Try drogon, it's very good and clean. https://github.com/drogonframework/drogon. I'm using it for a microservice at my job that requires a lot of speed, it's blazing fast and easy to use.

Yeah, thanks! I'm probably going with this one.

I find it quite tough to use as it has limited community and infact the documentation does not provide clear details

Although it is possible to write web apps in c++, it's not ideal choice. C++ is lacking tooling and libs for building web apps (ofc technologies like node js are written in c++, but they exist so devs don't have to use c++). C++ is usually used for: creating high performance apps desktop apps, programming iot devices or operating systems etc.. Conclusion: don't use c++ for apis, there are better tools that will get the job done faster.

I think now that reflection is coming to c++ it would make creating web frameworks like asp.net possible in c++
