The C++ REST SDK is a Microsoft project for cloud-based client-server communication in native code using a modern asynchronous C++ API design. This project aims to help C++ developers connect to and interact with services.
Are you new to the C++ Rest SDK? To get going we recommend you start by taking a look at our tutorial to use the http_client.
