How to develop a basic website using C++

Specifically, I would like to know:

What tools or frameworks are needed to use C++ in web development?

Can C++ be used to serve web pages or handle backend logic, similar to Node.js or Python Flask?

Are there any simple example projects or templates available to help beginners get started with C++ for web development?

This question is related to the following Learning Module

Developer technologies | C++
Developer technologies | C++

A high-level, general-purpose programming language, created as an extension of the C programming language, that has object-oriented, generic, and functional features in addition to facilities for low-level memory manipulation.

    as writing a webserver is complex, you would probably pick a web framework. see for example some popular ones:
