Software architecture question: best platform for RPC

Hi everyone,

I am new to C# and would like to implement a client/server application. The user would interact with the client and enter information. This information would then be sent to the server application on another computer on the local network (both applications should be windows forms applications). The server then replies with information based on the user's input.
Ideally, I would like to implement this with some sort of easy RPC technique without the need to actually write/define a network protocol and with minimal overhead. Since WCF is not recommended for .net 5, what technique would you suggest to do this?

Best regards,

Peter
