Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
Secure context: This feature is available only in secure contexts (HTTPS), in some or all supporting browsers.
The incomingBidirectionalStreams
read-only property of the WebTransport
interface represents one or more bidirectional streams opened by the server. Returns a ReadableStream
of WebTransportBidirectionalStream
objects. Each one can be used to reliably read data from the server and write data back to it.
"Reliable" means that transmission and order of data are guaranteed. This provides slower delivery (albeit faster than with WebSockets) than datagrams
, but is needed in situations where reliability and ordering are important, like chat applications.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers
