Description
By integrating wire with ktor, we can create a multiplatform gRPC client using Kotlin that supports Linux, macOS, and Windows targets. It would be great if wire provided a Kotlin native implementation for the gRPC client.
Actually, I have created a demo project to accomplish this: ShadowySpirits/kotlin-native-grpc. And I am willing to contribute to upstream.
