websockets vs http
reply
cool. But, QUIC is really a new transport right? Like an alternative to TCP. Websocket lives “inside”/“alongside” http at the application layer.

Websockets use http for the initial handshake, but are otherwise an independent application layer protocol.
QUIC is built on top of UDP and doesn't rely on TCP for handshakes or otherwise afaict.
