At DConf 2018,there was a talk by ?? about blockchain and gRPC 
library for D came up.

In summary, grpc a universal rpc framework by Google and can be 
implemented in any language. It enables you to call methods on a 
remote server from a client as if they're both on the same host. 
Its use http/http2 as its protocol and protobuffer as the schema 
for api definition.


Its quite an interesting subject in large scale enterprise 
development and microservices. gRPC is now a good reason to use 
Go or Java for development...at least for distributed 
services...including blockchain. Its actually very powerful.

There's a protobuffer implementation at code.dlang.org

What remains is a D grpc implementation or bindings using the c++ 
or c version.

You may read more about it at https://grpc.io. Huge potential.
