That's what Twirp (https://github.com/twitchtv/twirp) is about. Protobuf or JSON, over any HTTP, with a simple URL schema. It's fairly simple.

highly recommend twirp, even in current year. connectrpc seems to have stalled so there isn't a ton of languages w/server support, and because of the grpc interop on top of their own protocol it's a bit of an undertaking to roll your own.

the twirp spec however is so simple you can throw together your own code generator in an afternoon for whatever language you want.
