# Internet

Internet is a network library that provides encoding, structure mapping, communication primitives and implementations of network standards, protocols and algorithms in one place.

> **Development status (August 2026)**  
> The project is only a few days old. A lot of the current roughness is just “hot pie” defects — things that are still cooling down.  
> Roughly by the 20th of August the API should become significantly more frozen, stable and safer.  
> Until then **every patch contain breaking changes**.

## Status of public protocols

| Protocol / Layer     | Encoding          | Mapping                  | Notes                      |
|----------------------|-------------------|--------------------------|----------------------------|
| **TLS 1.0 – 1.3**    | Semi-finished     | Hidden / WIP / Pending   | —                          |
| **HTTP/1.1**         | Pending           | Pending                  | First codecs coming soon   |
| **HTTP/2**           | Pending           | Pending                  | First codecs coming soon   |
| **HTTP/3**           | Pending           | Pending                  | First codecs coming soon   |
| **QUIC / QUICv1**    | Mostly finished   | Probably Soon            | Needs final verification   |
| **QUICv2**           | Mostly finished   | Probably Soon            | Needs final verification   |
| **TCP**              | Semi-finihed      | Semi-finished            | MVP, will be polished soon |
| **UDP**              | Semi-finished     | Semi-finished            | MVP, will be polished soon |
| **IPv4 / IPv6**      | Base done (dirty) | Hidden / WIP / Pending   | Same state as TCP/UDP      |
| **ICMPv4 / ICMPv6**  | Semi-finished     | Hidden / WIP / Pending   | Needs polish               |

**Default features** enable almost everything listed above.

## Notes

- Mapping for several layers is currently hidden / WIP and will be exposed later.
- Some other protocol implementations exist but remain private (still MVP / unfiltered).
