## Installation
To install gRPC on your system, follow the instructions to build from source [here](../../INSTALL.md). This also installs the protocol buffer compiler `protoc` (if you don't have it already), and the C++ gRPC plugin for `protoc`.

## Hello C++ gRPC!
Here's how to build and run the C++ implementation of the [Hello World](../protos/helloworld.proto) example used in [Getting started](..).
The example code for this and our other examples lives in the `examples`
directory. Clone this repository to your local machine by running the
following command:
```sh
$ git clone -b $(curl -L http://grpc.io/release) https://github.com/grpc/grpc
```
Change your current directory to examples/cpp/helloworld
```sh
$ cd examples/cpp/helloworld/
```

### Client and server implementations

### Try it!
Build client and server:
```sh
$ make
```
Run the server, which will listen on port 50051:
```sh
$ ./greeter_server
```
Run the client (in a different terminal):
```sh
$ ./greeter_client
```
If things go smoothly, you will see the "Greeter received: Hello world" in the client side output.
