### 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](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc7932.txt).
