We would like you to create a REST API for managing products. The API should allow the following actions:

1. Create a new product
2. Get a single product
3. List the most viewed products
4. Delete a product

When creating a new product, the name and price of the product need to be provided. Optionally, a description can also be provided. The price is assumed to be in USD. The product should be saved to a SQL database.

When a single product is requested, all fields of that product are returned and the view-count for that product is incremented. The request can optionally specify a currency, in which case the price should be converted to the requested currency before being returned. We need to support the following currencies:

1. USD
2. CAD
3. EUR
4. GBP

The latest exchange rates can be retrieved from the public APIhttps://currencylayer.com/ (or any similar API).When a list of the most viewed products is requested, the API should return the products with the highest view-counts. By default, the top 5 products will be returned, but the request can also specify a custom number of products to return. Only products with at least 1 view should be included. A specific currency can also be specified in which case all the prices should be returned in that currency.

When a product is deleted, it should no longer be included in any of the API responses but should remain in the database for audit purposes
