(description
"nghttp2 implements the Hypertext Transfer Protocol, version
2 (@dfn{HTTP/2}).
A reusable C library provides the HTTP/2 framing layer, with several tools built
on top of it:
@itemize
@item @command{nghttp}, a command-line HTTP/2 client. It exposes many advanced
and low-level aspects of the protocol and is useful for debugging.
@item @command{nghttpd}, a fast, multi-threaded HTTP/2 static web server that
serves files from a local directory.
@item @command{nghttpx}, a fast, multi-threaded HTTP/2 reverse proxy that can be
deployed in front of existing web servers that don't support HTTP/2.
Both @command{nghttpd} and @command{nghttpx} can fall back to HTTP/1.1 for
backwards compatibilty with clients that don't speak HTTP/2.
@item @command{h2load} for benchmarking (only!) your own HTTP/2 servers.
@item HTTP/2 uses a header compression method called @dfn{HPACK}.
nghttp2 provides a HPACK encoder and decoder as part of its public API.
@item @command{deflatehd} converts JSON data or HTTP/1-style header fields to
compressed JSON header blocks.
@item @command{inflatehd} converts such compressed headers back to JSON pairs.
