gRPC-rs (published as grpcio) is a Rust wrapper around the gRPC Core C library, providing asynchronous client and server RPC built on futures. It supports unary and streaming calls, SSL/TLS, health checks, and code generation from proto files.

Use cases

• build a gRPC server in Rust
• call gRPC services from a Rust client
• streaming RPCs with async Rust
• generate Rust code from proto files
• secure gRPC with TLS in Rust
• interoperate with gRPC services in other languages

When to choose

• you need gRPC in Rust with mature C-core performance
• you want async/await or futures-based RPC clients and servers
• you need TLS, health checks, or interoperability with other gRPC stacks

When to avoid

• you want a pure-Rust gRPC stack without C dependencies (consider tonic)
• you need server-side load reporting or gRPC reflection, which are unimplemented
• your build environment cannot satisfy CMake/Clang toolchain prerequisites
