seewang.me now served over HTTP2

You surely have heard HTTP2 and its advantage over the good old HTTP1.1, security, performance blah blah blah…
And it bizarrely easy to enable on my Nginx.

Firstly some requirements:

Nginx > 1.9.5
OpenSSL > 1.0.2

Then add http2 to the server configuration, after listen 443 ssl.

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name seewang.me www.seewang.me;
    return 301 https://seewang.me$request_uri;
}
server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name seewang.me www.seewang.me;

    #rest of config...
}

And that’s it， now we can check it on Chrome Developer Tools > Network tab, we’ll need to right click on the column header and check Protocol column.
