Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • buf

    The best way of working with Protocol Buffers.

  • gRPC itself is quite nice, especially with buf which makes generating Go code much easier. The rest of the code was in a bad state. Unmaintained router packages, repository pattern without any actual benefit or a repository pattern.

  • Cap'n Proto

    Cap'n Proto serialization/RPC system - core tools and C++ library

  • Google thinks gRPC is fast enough for there use case. What do you consider high-performance? Plain UDP with custom TCP-like stack? https://capnproto.org/?

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
