+# Cancellation
+
+This example shows how clients can cancel in-flight RPCs by cancelling the
+call object returned by the method invocation. The client will receive a status
+with code `CANCELLED` and the server handler's call object will emit a
+`'cancelled'` event.
+
+## Start the server
+
+```
+node server.js
+```
+
+## Run the client
+
+```
+node client.js
+```
