🐞 HTTP2, http/2.0, h2

[RobinTail]

It would be a great feature to support HTTP 2, I've been interested in that protocol for long.
However, there is no native support of HTTP 2 protocol by Express yet, though it's planned for Express 6:
expressjs/express#3730 (reference)
I hope it won't take another 10 years to do that.

In meanwhile, the recommended approach is to use spdy library:

• Support http/2. expressjs/express#3730 (comment)
• https://typeofnan.dev/how-to-use-http2-with-express/

However, that library is critically outdated (last release was 5 years ago):
https://www.npmjs.com/package/spdy
The author seems to abandon the project and the community is already making forks in order to fix its compatibility to Node 10+ and so on:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/spdy-fixes

But the idea behind spdy is great — it allows to define multiple protocols under a single express-compatible wrapper.

So, in case you know some well-maintained alternative to spdy, or another reliable way to establish that protocol with express (also well-maintained), please let me know.

Reddit recommends to maintain a copy of (also outdated) bridge-library: https://www.npmjs.com/package/http2-express-bridge
https://www.reddit.com/r/node/comments/1dqn5tm/in_2024_any_way_to_get_http2_with_express_4x_if/

This one at least 3 years old, not 5, and requires Node 10+, which is more promising than spdy.
