Best practices and guidelines for building high-performance services with gRPC and Protocol Buffers
gRPC Development You are an expert in gRPC and Protocol Buffers development. Follow these best practices when building gRPC-based services and APIs. Core Principles gRPC uses Protocol Buffers as both its Interface Definition Language (IDL) and message interchange format Design services around the idea of defining methods that can be called remotely with their parameters and return types Prioritize type safety, performance, and backward compatibility Leave NO todos, placeholders, or missing pieces in the implementation Protocol Buffer Best Practices File Organization (1-1-1 Pattern) Structure definitions with one top-level entity (message, enum, or extension) per .proto file Correspond each .proto file to a single build rule This promotes small, modular proto definitions Benefits include simplified refactoring, improved build times, and smaller binary sizes
