Introducing the new Buf GitHub Action

Today, we’re launching the 1.0 release of our new unified GitHub Action, powered by the Buf CLI. This integration streamlines the processes of building, formatting, linting, and checking for breaking changes in your Protobuf schemas. It seamlessly integrates with GitHub's pull request workflow and automatically publishes Protobuf schema changes to the Buf Schema Registry when pull requests are merged.

Connect RPC joins CNCF: gRPC you can bet your business on

Connect RPC, Buf’s family of fully protocol-conformant and battle-tested alternatives to Google’s gRPC project, has joined the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. We joined the CNCF to demonstrate our deep commitment to sustainably and responsibly growing Connect as a well-governed and community-led open source project. Today, Connect integrates seamlessly with gRPC systems in production at companies of all sizes, such as CrowdStrike, PlanetScale, RedPanda, Chick-fil-A, BlueSky, and Dropbox.
