Node.js HTTP parsing currently relies on llhttp, a parser which provides very good performance but has currently some challenges for the health of the runtime.

Let me introduce you Milo, a new Rust based HTTP parser which I plan to integrate into Node.js and let me show you how you can help be a part of its first Rust component.
