+
+> Node.js implementation of the TCP module that libp2p uses, which implements the [abstract-connection]() interface for dial/listen.
+
+note: libp2p-tcp in Node.js is a very thin shim that adds the support to dial to a `multiaddr`. This small shim will enable libp2p to use other different transports.
