A base protocol providing streams of messages.
The purpose of imsg is to be a building block for your own protocol. It simplifies handling a full-blown QUIC connection with all its subtelties into having a protocol which sends and receives messages.
The short summary of the features is:
- Always send and receive an entire message, as a
Bytesobject. - Either side can send the first message.
- When closing a connection, it is easy to reason about which message may be lost.
This is currently highly experimental and more a prototype under development.
