    Restfox [1] is worth checking out. It's fully offline and lets you version control your collections with git or any sync tool you prefer. The postman import is well tested and the …

    The main limitation of web components for me is that all data needs to be passed to the component attributes as strings. Wish we could pass objects and arrays without JSON.stringif…

    You can try https://github.com/flawiddsouza/Restfox . It's a web based HTTP client based on Postman and Insomnia. Disclaimer: I'm the maintainer for it.

    I definitely intend to add web socket support eventually. Meanwhile, there's https://socketfox.dev which I made for my friends. You can use it to test web sockets.

    Thank you. Will look into preventing the right click requirement and provide an alternative for that. It should be saving your requests automatically. Maybe your browser is blockin…

    Firefox with ublock origin should not cause any issues. The issue might be caused by Firefox's private window implementation which does not allow IndexedDB operations, which is wha…

    Definitely something I'll be implementing soon. Importing and exporting curl commands is a good feature to have. Thanks for the feature suggestion.

    Thank you. The UI is not currently built with mobile in mind. I have been thinking of implementing a responsive layout but haven't had the time to do it. I did not know about the G…

    I haven't used hoppscotch much. But from what I know: 1) Both Restfox and Hoppscotch run completely within the browser without needing a backend server to process the http requests…
