 This tutorial provides a basic Go programmer's introduction to working with gRPC. By walking through this example you'll learn how to:
 
-- Define a service in a .proto file.
+- Define a service in a `.proto` file.
 - Generate server and client code using the protocol buffer compiler.
 - Use the Go gRPC API to write a simple client and server for your service.
 
-It assumes that you have read the [Getting started](https://github.com/grpc/grpc/tree/master/examples) guide and are familiar with [protocol buffers](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/overview). Note that the example in this tutorial uses the proto3 version of the protocol buffers language, which is currently in alpha release:you can find out more in the [proto3 language guide](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/proto3) and see the [release notes](https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases) for the new version in the protocol buffers Github repository.

 Our example is a simple route mapping application that lets clients get information about features on their route, create a summary of their route, and exchange route information such as traffic updates with the server and other clients.
 
-With gRPC we can define our service once in a .proto file and implement clients and servers in any of gRPC's supported languages, which in turn can be run in environments ranging from servers inside Google to your own tablet - all the complexity of communication between different languages and environments is handled for you by gRPC. We also get all the advantages of working with protocol buffers, including efficient serialization, a simple IDL, and easy interface updating.

 For simplicity, we've provided a [bash script](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/blob/master/codegen.sh) that runs `protoc` for you with the appropriate plugin, input, and output (if you want to run this by yourself, make sure you've installed protoc and followed the gRPC-Go [installation instructions](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/blob/master/README.md) first):

 You can use `DialOptions` to set the auth credentials (e.g., TLS, GCE credentials, JWT credentials) in `grpc.Dial` if the service you request requires that - however, we don't need to do this for our `RouteGuide` service.
 
-Once the gRPC *channel* is setup, we need a client *stub* to perform RPCs. We get this using the `NewRouteGuideClient` method provided in the `pb` package we generated from our .proto.
