code generator plugin.
A complete implementation of Protocol Buffers in TypeScript,
suitable for web browsers, Node.js, and Deno, created by Buf.
Protobuf-ES is a solid, modern alternative to existing Protobuf implementations for the JavaScript ecosystem. It's
the first project in this space to provide a comprehensive plugin framework and decouple the base types from RPC
functionality.
Some additional features that set it apart from the others:
- ECMAScript module support
- First-class TypeScript support
- Generation of idiomatic JavaScript and TypeScript code
- Generation of much smaller bundles
- Implementation of all proto3 features, including the canonical JSON format
- Implementation of all proto2 features, except for extensions and the text format
- Usage of standard JavaScript APIs instead of the Closure Library
- Compatibility is covered by the Protocol Buffers conformance tests
- Descriptor and reflection support
