I am converting my proto to typescript with https://github.com/improbable-eng/grpc-web and until recently also used their go server library. That meant my grpc servers were listening on 2 ports, gRPC and gRPC-web. I since replaced the gRPC-web part with envoy. Works fine together with the gRPC-web typescript. The gist should give you an idea how to set up a small example. https://gist.github.com/codesuki/f0514368a30b483058007f5fe38...
In Envoy: Modern Proxy server with HTTP 1.1 and 2, GRPC supported reverse proxy
We've been using grpc-web from Improbable successfully for internal services. I'm working on a more production scale application soon that I'm planning on leveraging grpc-web for. The biggest missing feature is client side streaming support which is hamstrung the new wgfetch/streams API, but I feel confident in finding solutions for situations that generally require client side streaming. https://github.com/improbable-eng/grpc-web
