FAQ

Why didn't you use CrowCpp from Conan?

  • I couldn't use CrowCpp from Conan because I'm using the new latest version of CrowCpp v1.1.0 (Pre-Release) and it's still not available in the Conan Package Center yet. I used this particular version because it is the newest and latest version of Crow for a long time with a large number of fixes and with the transition to Asio instead of Boost

Why is everything written functionally and no classes are used?

  • Everything is written in a functional style, because I don’t see the point of using classes in a place where there is simply no point in using them, because the behavior of mongodb or crowcpp is essentially pre-defined, it’s pointless. But if you really want to use classes, you can copy all the source code and create your own simple Singleton class from it
