My guess is clickbait? But I'll take a look Then update My answer aha Yeah gRPC is mainly designed if you need speed or want to lower data transfer it can be used as an optimisation . Yeah using grpc client is only really if you know what your doing If you need grpc on the client you'll likely know. That being said you should.learn the basics of what it is and why it's fast

thanx for res but i think he isn't meaning that there are some props that makes it awful but i searchig about that and i figuer out that is limited to 4 mb and when it comes to serialising collections. Maps, lists. should had to convert to JSON string those collections and send them as string field og gRPC model.

There's drawbacks to it (like everything) But it does have use cases But in 99.9% of cases you don't need it You can honestly just use rest for most things and be fine Or just basic http requests

It's not a joke the Theo was annoyed people were conflating tRPC and gRPC, plenty of reasons to learn it if you want or need too
