There is also work underway to develop a JS library for use in browsers. Beyond that, it is ideal as a microservices interconnect, not just because the core protocol is very efficient but also because the framework has pluggable authentication, load balancing, etc. Google itself is also transitioning to use it to connect microservices. \ No newline at end of file +gRPC is used in last mile of computing in mobile and web client since it can +generate libraries for iOS and Android and uses standards based HTTP/2 as +transport allowing it to easily traverse proxies and firewalls.
