Protocol Buffers / GRPC

We try and generate all types using protobuf and in most cases support these with a GRPC service ( though not always)

The goal in defining types with protobuf is to ensure some amount of modularity in building clients, adopting SOME parts of the cloudkit and not others, or cross language/project interoperability.

Protobuf files are to be self contained in /proto and ideally versioned.

Buf

We are currently using buf to generate go types from the proto files and using remote plugins to ensure you don't need to set anything up on your machine.

To generate:

buf mod update buf generate
