We all know that connections to #nostr relays are mostly done via websocket.

And then i got an idea: How about i create a way to communicate with Nostr relays via HTTP instead?

You see, We have QUIC already, And we know that most social media apps were using HTTP to communicate. But we are using websocket. So what's wrong with it? As a mobile data user, I am struggling to solve the high bandwidth problem.

So there we go, an prototype nhttp (Nostr over HTTP). It got basic stuff already: REQ, and event publishing
