Question

Enabling HTTP/2 support (Ubuntu 16.04.04/LAMP)

Hi there!

I’d like to enable the HTTP/2 protocol for my WordPress based website, on a LAMP stack. I see there’s a tutorial for NGINX here in DO’s tutorials, but can’t get a comprehensive one for Apache. Browsing around, I understand there’s a solution installing Apache through Ondrej Launchpad PPA, but I’m not sure whether this is fine on a production server.

Any comment, advice or solution very much welcomed! ; )

My best,

Dimitri
