quic-go is an implementation of the QUIC protocol (RFC 9000, RFC 9001, RFC 9002) in Go. It has support for HTTP/3 (RFC 9114), including QPACK (RFC 9204) and HTTP Datagrams (RFC 9297).
In addition to these base RFCs, it also implements the following RFCs:
- Unreliable Datagram Extension (RFC 9221)
- Datagram Packetization Layer Path MTU Discovery (DPLPMTUD, RFC 8899)
- QUIC Version 2 (RFC 9369)
- QUIC Event Logging using qlog (draft-ietf-quic-qlog-main-schema and draft-ietf-quic-qlog-quic-events)
- QUIC Stream Resets with Partial Delivery (draft-ietf-quic-reliable-stream-reset-07 and draft-ietf-quic-reliable-stream-reset-09)
Support for WebTransport over HTTP/3 (draft-ietf-webtrans-http3) is implemented in webtransport-go.
Detailed documentation can be found on quic-go.net.
Starting with v0.60, quic-go supports use in FIPS 140-3 environments when built with Go 1.26 or newer, using Go standard library cryptography for the QUIC code paths relevant in FIPS mode; see FIPS140.md for details.
