brotli Generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm
1.2.1,1 archivers Σ 1.2.1,1Version of this port present on the latest quarterly branch. Maintainer: osa@FreeBSD.org Port Added: 2015-10-01 15:55:19Last Update: 2026-10-23 22:53:50Commit Hash: 1f82b2d People watching this port, also watch: png , libiconv , gnutls , pcre2 , freetype2 Also Listed In: devel License: MITWWW: https://github.com/google/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. Manual pages: #
