HTTP/3 or QUIC Support about fibjs HOT 5 OPEN

In the upcoming version of FibJS, a new module called rtc will be introduced, which will provide support for a modified version of WebRTC technology known as WebRTC Direct.

With this module, users will be able to establish direct connections to servers using WebRTC in web browsers without the need for a signaling server.

This will make the connection of webrtc more independent and faster. Maybe you can use it to do a lot of interesting things. For example, games and live streaming.

Thank you very much for your suggestions, I will carefully consider this feature. I think supporting HTTP/3 is just a matter of time. I hope to prioritize it in our roadmap sooner.

What are the benefits of fibjs supporting http2/3?

from fibjs.

HTTP/3 eliminates head-of-line blocking, which can significantly slow down HTTP/2. Additionally, HTTP/3 uses faster TLS negotiations, which also speeds up web page loading. These improvements can significantly reduce server and network load, especially under heavy traffic. This efficiency can translate into cost savings and reduced resource requirements for website owners and hosting services.

HTTP/3 is used by:

• WebTransport is a web API that uses the HTTP/3 protocol as a transport layer for two-way communication. It is designed for scenarios where WebSocket or WebRTC are not optimal, such as gaming or live streaming.
• gRPC over HTTP/3: This combination offers potential performance enhancements for gRPC applications.
• Faster MySQL with HTTP/3

@xicilion Thank you!

I remember that:

• Node.js and Deno do not support HTTP/3, which is a competitive advantage for FibJS.
• When Cloudflare proxies my traffic, instead of multiple http/1.1 connections with Keep-Alive, it will make one http/3 connection, and we took a step towards green computing.
• Developers can use WebTransport in the web browsers.

I would appreciate it if you include it in your future plans.
