Merging HTML and C++: Realizing the combination of HTML and C++

Question

I am new to both html and c, but have a lot of knowledge in c#. I just wrote my first 100% C program, a small banking system, and need a little help integrating the html into it. For example, how to display funds in html?

IDE Clion.

int press;
    int newFunds;
    cout << "Available Funds ";
    cout << funds;
    cout << "$ \n";
    cout << "Press 1 to withdraw \n";
    cout << "Press 2 to deposit \n";
    cin >> press;
    if(press == 1) {
        cout << "amount";
        cin >> withdraw;
        funds -= withdraw;
        newFunds = withdraw;
        if(funds < 0) {
            funds = newFunds;
            cout << "Insufficient funds! ";
        }
        else {
            cout << "remaining funds ", cout << funds, cout << "$ \n";
        }
    }
    else if(press == 2) {
        cout << "Amount\n";
        cin >> deposit;
        funds = deposit;
        cout << "Funds ";
        cout << funds;
        cout << "$";
    }
    if(press > 2) {
        cout << "Invalid";
    }
    return 0;
}

I welcome any suggestions!

I tried looking up some tutorials but they weren't very good!

C and HTML cannot be connected just by creating a localhost web server. To establish a "connection" between them, you need a C API to interact with the server and your C program. FastCGI Protocol Simple and easy to use for beginners, but may not be the best choice for more professional projects. Check out information about FastCGI, an API for C. Here's a useful GitHub link I recommend getting started: https://github.com/eddic/fastcgipp.
