How to bring a gRPC defined API to the web browser

Question

We want to build a Javascript/HTML gui for our gRPC-microservices. Since gRPC is not supported on the browser side, we thought of using web-sockets to connect to a node.js serve

Answer 1

https://github.com/tmc/grpc-websocket-proxy sounds like it may meet your needs. This translates json over web sockets to grpc (layer on top of grpc-gateway).
