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