# Introduction
# An Extremely Abstract Description of QUIC

QUIC is a connection-oriented protocol between two endpoints. Those endpoints
exchange UDP datagrams. These UDP datagrams contain QUIC packets. QUIC
endpoints use QUIC packets to establish a QUIC connection, which is shared
protocol state between those endpoints.


# Fixed Properties of All QUIC Versions

In addition to providing secure, multiplexed transport, QUIC {{QUIC-TRANSPORT}}
includes the ability to negotiate a version. This allows the protocol to change
over time in response to new requirements. Many characteristics of the protocol
will change between versions.
