Low latency
Independent streams prevent old media from delaying the live edge during congestion.
Media over QUICLive media without latency buildup
A composable protocol stack for real-time media and data at scale.
Skip to content
Scalable
Generic relays cache and fan out content without understanding its media format.
Composable
Protocol, media, and application layers can evolve independently and carry custom tracks.
Cross-platform
Native and browser implementations, language bindings, gateways, and production tools share one protocol.
What is MoQ?
Media over QUIC (MoQ) is a family of protocols for live media and data. It uses independent QUIC streams so congestion on one part of a broadcast does not block newer content on another.
This project provides a production-oriented implementation in Rust and TypeScript. Its primary protocol stack is moq-lite for transport and hang for media, with compatibility for the IETF MoQ specifications.

The main implementations are Rust for native applications and TypeScript for browsers and JavaScript runtimes. C, Python, Kotlin, Swift, and Go bindings wrap the Rust core.
