WebTransport is designed to give you the best of HTTP/2 & HTTP/3 without their limitations: it lets you spin up multiplexed, bidirectional channels with both reliable and unreliable streaming (hello, real-time apps) all under TLS. This video peels back the layers—from the early days of a simple web and WebSockets’ quirks to gRPC’s pitfalls—then dives into WebTransport’s role on HTTP/2 vs HTTP/3 (and why there’s no love for HTTP/1.1), covers upgrading, proxying, HTTP/2 push’s demise and even YouTube’s notification woes.
By blending low-latency, security, and flexible streaming modes in one neat package, WebTransport promises to revamp backend design patterns and power next-gen real-time experiences on the web.
