Register end devices without web ui

Applications
1

Hi, i would like to register end devices without using the web ui, im using chirpstack with docker and the API REST in order to achieve that, but the documentation says that gRPC is recommended, but i dont see any examples and i dont understand why gRPC is preferred over API REST, there is my code btw, thanks
