#gRPC-Go [](https://travis-ci.org/grpc/grpc-go) [](https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/grpc) The Go implementation of [gRPC](http://www.grpc.io/): A high performance, open source, general RPC framework that puts mobile and HTTP/2 first. For more information see the [gRPC Quick Start](http://www.grpc.io/docs/) guide. Installation ------------ To install this package, you need to install Go and setup your Go workspace on your computer. The simplest way to install the library is to run: ``` $ go get google.golang.org/grpc ``` Prerequisites ------------- This requires Go 1.5 or later. Constraints ----------- The grpc package should only depend on standard Go packages and a small number of exceptions. If your contribution introduces new dependencies which are NOT in the [list](http://godoc.org/google.golang.org/grpc?imports), you need a discussion with gRPC-Go authors and consultants. Documentation ------------- See [API documentation](https://godoc.org/google.golang.org/grpc) for package and API descriptions and find examples in the [examples directory](examples/).
