Starting with version 0.13, we have improved the packaging story significantly and precompiled versions of the native library for all supported platforms are now shipped with the NuGet package. Just installing the `Grpc` NuGet package should be the only step needed to use gRPC C#, regardless of your platform (Windows, Linux or Mac) and the bitness (32 or 64bit). +Internally, gRPC C# uses a native library written in C (gRPC C core) and invokes its functionality via P/Invoke. The fact that a native library is used should be fully transparent to the users and just installing the `Grpc.Core` NuGet package is the only step needed to use gRPC C# on all supported platforms.
