UNIX Webservice technology options?
I need to create a simple WebAPI which will have access to a database of thousands of users/contacts with the normal information, FirstName, LastName, Street1, Street2...
each with a unique Integer ID.
And I need a WebAPI which accepts one parameter, the Unique ID, and return the required information.
I have a WordPress site, but do not think this is something WP is set up for. Or is it?
What is the range of choices for this?
I consider C#.NET to be a non-starter, due to the need for a Windows license.
What other C# options are there?
.NET CORE??
That would interest me, actually, since I have as yet had no experience with .NET CORE.
I could also choose Node.js.
What other choices can you suggest?
What do you consider the best choice?
Thanks.

As far as this question, I was not planning on writing a CRM. I am writing a WebAPI lookup to complement my use of an existing CRM.
I am asking about a WebAPI that could not be more simple. A database (probably MySQL), and one web method,
Contact GetContactById(int contactID)
the return could/should be JSON. There needs to be a single query to find that one unique record.
I like the sound of using .NET Core, since, as a .NET Developer, I really have a large hole in my resume, and this would help me fill that hole. So, the question is how well would .NET Core do solving this problem?
I expect it to be the first step into a web service that may grow and grow.
Thanks.
