Apples and oranges? gRPC might sometimes fit the bill for server-to-server use cases, but it's completely unsuitable for integration with SPAs; grpc-web was never well-supported, and is now dead. I don't understand the "want to vomit" perspective. That implies that adding protoc to your build toolchain and using an opaque binary format/protocol is somehow much more palatable than well-documented JSON / REST over HTTP. What am I missing?
