How about abstract URL to an standalone C++ repo just like what http-parser does?

What is the problem this feature will solve?

To make code more clean and beautiful.

What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?

To make code more clean and beautiful.

What alternatives have you considered?

We may abstract the C++ code, just like http-parse does. Or like https://github.com/cpp-netlib/url.

Why does that require a separate repo?

I saw the logic quite independent. Maybe we can increase maintainability by separating? And also, we can make that logic reusable for the whole open source community.

I'm extracting that via my own repo: https://github.com/XadillaX/libwhatwgurl

I think people were in favor of turning the WHATWG URL parser into a vendored dependency in #38708. Does it make sense to take this discussion there?

[RaisinTen]

@XadillaX it seems the discussion has already moved to the other issue. Does this need to stay open?

[XadillaX]

Since Node.js already used ada for new URL parser. I think https://github.com/XadillaX/libwhatwgurl is no longer applicable.
