What is Pistache?
Pistache is a high-performance HTTP and REST framework written in modern C++17. It enables developers to build fast, scalable web servers and RESTful APIs with a clean and elegant API. The framework handles low-level HTTP details while providing tools for routing, SSL, compression, and cross-platform deployment.
C++ developers building web services, microservices, or REST APIs that require high performance and low latency, particularly in resource-constrained or performance-critical environments.
Developers choose Pistache for its combination of modern C++ design, excellent performance benchmarks, and a pleasant API that reduces boilerplate. It stands out as a pure-C++ solution without external runtime dependencies, offering SSL support, compression, and easy integration with common build systems.
