We also need a good library among the standard libraries that would help with web development in general, to make C++ a better choice for web development so that programmers wouldn't need to abandon it completely in favor of Python or other such higher-level. Keeping Python or other such languages (for the back-end, I mean - for the front-end, there's HTML, CSS and JavaScript) in the toolbox is of course still good, I think, but I want to have a good reason to not completely abandon C++, either.
