:wave: A question on proto-buff data-store in android. I realised tool like flipper doesn’t support proto-buff yet. I was writing a flipper plugin for it and the approach i took was -  from client/consumer end i am converting the protobuff to json and then sending it to the flipper Android plugin, which reads it and send it’s to the desktop flipper plugin.

Was wondering if there is a better approach in proto-buff world, where i can avoid converting it to json and sending it as string, as any client/server needs the `proto` schema for serialising or deserialising it.

Looks like there is no support for converting to json from javalite in android
