We are going to create a stack where: Microservices are communicating using gRPC using protobuf for serializing-deserializingFrontend is consuming APIs through graphQLReact is used to render UI Step 1: gRPC Service You need a gRPC server running for the tutorial. If you don't have one of your own, you can use the one here. This... Continue Reading →
I wrote past few posts based on my notes from The Go Progamming Language by Donovan. In this article, we will try to make a go serverand expose rest APIs to read an write values from MySQL database. We will assume that your mySQL server is running at 3306 port in your local computer. net/http... Continue Reading →
