Most modern networking is built either on slow and ambiguous REST APIs or unnecessarily complex gRPC. FastAPI, for example, looks very approachable. We aim to be equally or even simpler to use. It takes over a millisecond to handle a trivial FastAPI call on a recent 8-core CPU. In that time, light could have traveled 300 km through optics to the neighboring city or country, in my case. How does UCall compare to FastAPI and gRPC? How can a tiny pet-project with just a couple thousand lines of code compete with two of the most established networking libraries? UCall stands on the shoulders of Giants.
