Description

Background

cpp-restsdk has entered maintenance mode.
It is not recommended for new projects.

I planned to use it for an upcoming project.
The project has the following requirements:

  • client application
  • windows only
  • communicate with a server via an open-api

From my point of view it (cpp-restsdk) is a good choice for this projects and has the following benefits:

  • a client-server communication sdk with native code (not like the QT framework)
  • mature
  • integrated in vcpkg

The other supported libaries (Arduino, Qt5, Tizen, Unreal Engine 4) does not fit to the requirements,

Question, feature request

Do you plan to add an alternative (like curlpp) or successor of cpprestsdk for the client generator ?

Thanks in advance
