Why use C++ to make a website?

“

- [Troy] Today, few people think of C++ when they are developing websites, which is a shame. Modern C++ is an amazingly powerful language. It has the same features of other languages, and one thing they don't, it compiles down to machine code. This makes it fast when starting it up, and when executing. On the web, this means your users will wait less for your site to render. Hi, my name is Troy Miles, and I'm a senior software engineer. Our goal in this LinkedIn learning course is simple, show you how to build a website in C++, using MongoDB as the database, and deploy it to the internet using Heroku as our Cloud server. You can write bad code in any language, but a well written C++ program is generally faster than any other. So join me as we take a look at all C++ has to offer.
