WebTransport: A Game Changer Protocol
WebTransport is a next-gen web protocol that rides on HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 to deliver secure, multiplexed, bidirectional streams—both reliable and “best-effort”—all under one roof. By blending TLS, low-latency connections, and seamless upgrades (plus neat features like unreliable streaming and Extended CONNECT), it tackles WebSocket and gRPC pain points and paves the way for truly real-time, interactive web apps.
In short, WebTransport leans on the rock-solid foundation of existing HTTP standards to bring supercharged, browser-friendly transport to everything from live gaming and VoIP to data sync and notifications—without reinventing the wheel. If you’ve ever fought hiccups with WebSockets, struggled with HTTP/2 Push, or wished for gRPC magic in the browser, this protocol just might be your new best friend.
