WPF consume data generated by grpc services

Install-Package Google.Protobuf
Install-Package Grpc.Net.Client
Install-Package Grpc.Tools
Install-Package Grpc.AspnetCore

 

Add book.proto both in service and client, set the build action as ProtoBuffer Compiler of project properties then rebuild and it will generate related files automatically

syntax="proto3";

option csharp_namespace="GrpcBookServer";
