Brotli

Introduction

Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression.

The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in RFC 7932.

Brotli is open-sourced under the MIT License, see the LICENSE file.

> Please note: brotli is a "stream" format; it does not contain > meta-information, like checksums or uncompresssed data length. It is possible > to modify "raw" ranges of the compressed stream and the decoder will not > notice that.
