C++ API Framework (CrowCpp)

This project provides a lightweight and efficient C++ API framework, inspired by Laravel's elegant design, built upon the CrowCpp microframework. It focuses solely on API functionalities, making it ideal for backend development and microservices.

Features

• Fast and efficient: Leverages CrowCpp's performance for handling HTTP requests.
• Database connectivity: Supports seamless integration with MySQL and PostgreSQL.
• Middleware: Provides middleware support for request processing and manipulation.
• JWT authentication: Implements JWT (JSON Web Token) for secure API access.
• Redis integration: Utilizes Redis for caching and session management.
• Easy routing: Offers a simple and intuitive routing system.
• Dockerized environment: Includes Dockerfile and docker-compose for easy setup and deployment.
