    http.js index.js Protocol

    node-http2 is an HTTP/2 implementation for node.js.

    The core of the protocol is implemented in the protocol sub-directory. This directory provides two important features on top of the protocol:

    • Implementation of different negotiation schemes that can be used to start a HTTP2 connection. These include TLS ALPN, Upgrade and Plain TCP.

    • Providing an API very similar to the standard node.js HTTPS module API (which is in turn very similar to the HTTP module API).

    module.exports   = require('./http');
