Buf

Appearance

Buf is building a better way to work with Protobuf

Create, maintain, and consume APIs with our modern Protobuf ecosystem

Read the docs

Create

Consistent APIs with centrally enforced linting and breaking change detection.

Maintain

Centrally managed dependencies, with automatically enforced forwards and backwards compatibility to ensure clients never break.

Consume

Generated libraries produced by a managed compiler. Buf will provide generated CLIs, documentation, validation, custom plugins, mock servers, stress-testing and more.



Postscript

Our goal is to create a mirror of the buf.build website because it is blocked in many countries:
