# Brotli
Description
===========
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.
