| `http_parser` is a platform-independent package for parsing and serializing | |
| various HTTP-related formats. It's designed to be usable on both the browser | |
| and the server, and thus avoids referencing any types from `dart:io` or | |
| `package:web`. | |
| ## Features | |
| * Support for parsing and formatting dates according to [HTTP/1.1][2616], the | |
| HTTP/1.1 standard. | |
| * A `MediaType` class that represents an HTTP media type, as used in `Accept` | |
| and `Content-Type` headers. This class supports both parsing and formatting | |
| media types according to [HTTP/1.1][2616]. | |
| * A `WebSocketChannel` class that provides a `StreamChannel` interface for both | |
| the client and server sides of the [WebSocket protocol][6455] independently of | |
| any specific server implementation. | |
