+# encode
+
+Encodes responses using the configured encoding(s). A typical use for encoding is compression.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```
+encode [<matcher>] <formats...> {
+	gzip [<level>]
+	zstd
+	brotli [<quality>]
+}
+```
+
+- **&lt;formats...&gt;** is the list of encoding formats to enable.
+- **gzip** enables Gzip compression, optionally at the specified level.
+- **zstd** enables Zstandard compression.
+- **brotli** enables on-the-fly Brotli compression, but be aware that Brotli compression is not designed to be fast and the current Go implementation is not efficient. Use only for testing and development. _We might remove this option in the future. Do not use in production. Not subject to compatibility promises._ To use brotli compression, pre-compress your assets and serve those instead.
+
+
+## Examples
+
+Enable Gzip compression:
+
+```
+encode gzip
+```
+
+Enable Zstandard and Gzip compression:
+
+```
+encode zstd gzip
+```
