# HTTP over QUIC

Il layer HTTP si occupa dei trasporti in stile HTTP, inclusa la compressione degli header utilizzando QPACK - simile alla compressione usata in ambito HTTP/2, detta HPACK.

L'algoritmo HPACK si basa sulla consegna *ordinata* dei flussi quindi non è stato possibile riciclarlo per HTTP/3 senza apportarvi modifiche, visto che QUIC permette la consegna di flussi al di fuori dell'ordine predefinito. QPACK può essere visto come una versione di [HPACK ](https://httpwg.org/specs/rfc7541.html) adattata su misura per QUIC.
