HTTP IPstack The Hypertext Transfer Protocol HTTP ) is an application layer protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information systems. HTTP is the foundation of data communication for the World Wide Web, where hypertext documents include hyperlinks to other resources that the user can easily access, for example by a mouse click or by tapping the screen in a web browser. Development of HTTP was initiated by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN in 1989. Development of early HTTP Requests for Comments (RFCs) was a coordinated effort by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), with work later moving to the IETF. HTTP/1 was first documented (as version 1.1) in 1997. As of 2021, about 30% of websites only support HTTP/1. HTTP/2 is a more efficient expression of HTTP's semantics "on the wire", and was published in 2015, and is used by over 50% of websites; it is now supported by virtually all web browsers and major web servers over Transport Layer Security (TLS) using an Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) extension where TLS 1.2 or newer is required. HTTP/3 is the proposed successor to HTTP/2, and 2/3rd of web browser users (both on desktop and mobile) can already use HTTP/3, on the 19.0% of websites that already support it; it uses UDP instead of TCP for the underlying transport protocol. Like HTTP/2, it does not obsolete previous major versions of the protocol. Support for HTTP/3 was added to Cloudflare and Google Chrome in September 2019 (since enabled by default), and can be enabled in the stable versions of Firefox and Safari.
