So is this the same approach you are taking with the HTTP API?

Yes I am using the same approach however I am working on using native FFI bindings which is what the TypeScript client is using now.

That's great.

I think it makes it such an easy onramp to integrate with something by having HTTP based APIs (or really, gRPC, even) even if it is lower performance compared to native libraries.

Looking forward to trying this.
