### ✈️ WebTransport

**Status**: In progress

**What?** WebTransport is a browser-API offering low-latency, bidirectional
client-server messaging running on top of QUIC. The browser API allows the
establishment of connections to servers that don't have a TLS certificate
signed by a certificate authority if the hash of the certificate is known in
advance.

**Why?** This allows libp2p nodes running in the browser (using js-libp2p) to
connect to the rest of the libp2p network.
