You can also use brew install grpcui on Mac.

@maximus1108 Upon using
brew install grpcui on MAC, I am getting following error:

Error: go: undefined method `kernel_name' for OS:Module
Did you mean? kernel_version

[Liamhhhhh]

Perhaps you can try Apidog, I think it's better than Postman and also supports the gRPC API!
