Very similar idea as Bruno: everything is configured in text, which I always find myself more productive in that full blown GUI where I need to tab from edit text to edit text to get anything don.

I just finished watching the introductory video and found the whole concept of PostMan and Bruno disappointing. It's baffling that one has to dive into the code to unearth the appropriate routes—a completely unnecessary and time-consuming endeavour. This process should be automated, ensuring that documentation and code are always perfectly aligned, eliminating any out of sync issues. The endpoints themselves should b…
Imagine you have a scenario where you need to get a token first, then with GET retrieve an id of the item, then with POST create a new entity related to that id. And then you need to call another microservice with created id from post request. How you going to do it in swagger? And more serious question is how you going to force developers keep swagger up to date so I can execute such scenario?
This is a good explanation. I would however be inclined to do that within a script.

The swagger is created automatically from the routes themselves so it is always up to date. To maintain endpoint an integration test can be written which executes the scenario.
I myself use Paw [0] because it's native to MacOS, but I'm a little bit worried for it's longevity as it being supported by a SaaS business. But so far it's been great to document API for my personal projects. [0]: https://paw.cloud/
the extensions and ability to write your own extensions, or chain request/response values is crazy. when i've switched to linux box from macos last year, paw.cloud (rapidapi) was one of few stoppers for me, that good of a software it is. also not to mention the integration with keychain for credentials encryption was nice. postman is really bad, nobody should use it. same goes for similar solutions, even this one.
Thank you. As soon as Postman asked for a login I uninstalled it and have been curling from text files ever since. My younger coworkers won't drop Postman though. Maybe this will help them switch.
I started using Yaak after Insomnia and Postman both decided to become user-hostile, it's decent: https://yaak.app/ You'll never guess who makes it.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Well based on historical experience with Postman and Insomnia most probably Bruno will go the same way once they get enough users hooked in. Especially once a VC gets into the fold.
Hey there, this is Anoop - creator of Bruno. Happy to see Bruno at the top of HN We will never take VC funding. We received around 10 inbound reach outs from VCs till date and have denied funding from all of them. We will remain independent and I have written about it in detail here https://www.usebruno.com/blog/bootstrapping

I know people don't love VS Code, but is there a reason Thunder Client isn't more popular? I know it's feature lacking compared to postman, but more so than curling?
