Summary

In this chapter, we saw how to write messages and services, and we saw how scalar types are serialized and deserialized. This prepared us for the rest of the book, where we are going to use this knowledge extensively.

In the next chapter, we are going to talk about gRPC, why it uses Protobuf for serialization and deserialization, and what it is doing behind the scenes, and we are going to compare it with REST and GraphQL APIs.
