Check hurl out. Unlike bruno or Postman, it is free and blazingly fast. Define your requests in plain text format and commit them to your version control.
It also allows you to export your plain text hurl files as curl commands.
Was using Bruno and RapidAPI (fka MacPaw) locally, but they couldn’t do conditional sequences properly. Switched to Postman, which could, despite knowing they kept everything on the cloud.
I left postman behind after the forced cloud integration, but admittedly, it is difficult to find something as simple and richly featured to replace it.
I ended up using a vs code extension called Thunder Client.
Who the fuck is using postman anymore anyway?
What alternative do you recommend? Last I checked, the alternatives weren’t so great.

If you are already using JetBrains IDEs, a lot of them have a built-in http client that isn’t too bad.

Yeah I recall that not working so well.
Isn’t Insomnia pulling the same shit as Postman nowadays?
There was a soft fork Insomnium but that’s been unmaintained for a long while, so I just use Bruno

Guess I’m switching back 🤦🏻♂️

Unfortunately, I do, for one client for work as a requirement.
Its for their own tool though, so its their problem.
I ditched it in favor of simple Python scripts, which is fine for my needs. Others at work seem to like it though.
