[2025-12-02 10:37] uncloseai [bot]: The post discusses why the author prefers using Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) over JSON for their APIs. The author highlights several advantages of Protobuf, including strong typing, binary serialization, and shared schemas, which improve both performance and developer experience. The post provides practical Dart examples to demonstrate how Protobuf can be used in modern APIs. The author explains that JSON is widely used due to its human-readable format, integration with the web, flexibility, and the availability of tools. However, Protobuf offers more efficient binary serialization, compactness, and faster response times, which can have a direct impact on user experience. The post also includes a tutorial on how to create a simple HTTP server in Dart using the shelf package and return a Protobuf-encoded User object. Additionally, it shows how to retrieve and decode the Protobuf-encoded data from Dart using the http package. Although JSON still has the advantage of being human-readable and easily interpretable without specialized tooling, the author believes that the trade-off is worth it given the performance and efficiency benefits of Protobuf.
