2 years ago For the server side, Go has standard library support for gzip compression. If we're to use brotli then the best option at the moment appears to be https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/google/brotli/go/cbrotli.
As more apps are hosted, this becomes more and more desirable.
The app's code will obviously need to support and implement it as well as the server-side.
You will also need to host pre-compressed files on the web server if you want to support HTTP download pause/resume in the app client in case of interrupted downloads.
