Ariq Haqq developed HTTP/2 cleartext (h2c) support for the rclone/rclone repository, enabling HTTP/2 connections for non-TLS server configurations. Working in Go, Ariq implemented TLS-agnostic h2c activation within the server’s lib/http module, allowing internal or non-TLS deployments to leverage HTTP/2 without disrupting existing TLS workflows. Automated tests were added to validate h2c functionality, ensuring reliability and minimizing regressions. This work demonstrated backend development skills, particularly in server configuration and protocol support, and addressed the need for broader deployment flexibility. The depth of the implementation reflects careful attention to compatibility, maintainability, and robust test-driven engineering practices.
