Paw is really the way to go if you can swing the $50 entry fee. Extremely polished native app, with so many features.

#22I've been using Insomnia since the beginning and I really appreciate how receptive gschier is to feedback and how the support side of things are handled.
I'd love to hear what you're planning on working on next and how you plan to monetize (if you're going to) :)

#23A lot of people here have been mentioning Postman but my personal go-to has been Advanced Rest Client [1]. It's open source, has Google Drive integration, and seems to have a pretty impressive development rate. For me, it's a definite plus that there isn't a paid tier so the developers don't have any incentive to limit the free product.

Ya, ARC is a pretty good one! Have you heard how the developer is handling the announcement of the shutdown of Chrome apps in 2017? Curious if they'll hop on the Electron bandwagon too.

Insomnia is still in the early stages, so talking to users is something I spend a lot of time and effort on. It's the only way to make a good product :)
My current plan for monetization is to add multi-device sync (almost ready for beta) then team collaboration features shortly after. There are also some advanced features left to implement like OAuth support, scripting (settings environment variables from response data), and a few others.
Thanks for the comment!

#25I'd like to see an API client that generates a API docs from a project / workspace.
Swagger UI seems to do a pretty decent job. The thing I like about swagger is you create one canonical description of your API and model and then generate postman collections, API docs, and client/server stubs all from the same source.

I wish paw team had "paw light" - free edition with limited set of features for folks who cannot afford $50

#27Executionable which won't run on my machine (Fedora) and not open source, guess I will be staying with Advance Rest Client then.

Hi there. Could you reach out to support@insomnia.rest with details? I'd love to help get this running for you. The linux build uses http://appimage.org/ which should support Fedora out of the box.

#29Interesting - the pricing page is not done.
I think developers have a tendency to prioritize things like pricing below the technical features.
