C++ web project using OpenCV with Wt

Question

What is a good platform for a web based project that does image processing using OpenCV library? I found Wt ( http://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt ).

Can I use OpenCV with Wt ? Is there any better alternatives to Wt?

Requirements:

A login page GUI to upload documents, select areas on image, handwriting word/line detection using OpenCV

I've used Wt in the past, it is very useful, albeit bulky. It's bloat has to do with having to support a wide variety of web browsers, so in some cases it is a feature.

If you're more of a close-to-metal programmer, I'd recommend PION, and implementing your GUI using some of your web authoring skills:

You can use OpenCV with pretty much any network library out there. A good review of your choices is available here on StackOverflow:
