RecipeUI VS NGINX Unit

When I went looking for alternatives to Insomnia I was pleasantly surprised to see that RecipeUI[1] will let paste in curl commands with various flags etc. and parse those to generate new entries, pretty slick.

Given the recent update[0] pushed by the Insomnia team I am now looking for alternatives.

For now the best alternative I've found is Bruno[1]. But sadly it does not support gRPC.

Does anyone have a better solution?

These are some options I've looked into:

- https://hoppscotch.io/

- https://hurl.dev/

- https://recipeui.com/

- https://kreya.app/

- https://github.com/flawiddsouza/Restfox

I recently found this open source postman typed alternative, hadn't had time to really try it yet but the types stuff should help here no?

Nginx Unit application server.

This is great to read! Thanks for all the great input!

I check the comments next week and make sure to address the issues / ideas mentioned. If you don’t mind feel free to drop a comment here as well with your ideas / needs. https://github.com/nginx/unit/issues/945

I will work on a compression between Nginx and Unit to close this gap in our documentation.

You could try running h5ai with NGINX UNIT.

nginx, but nginx-unit looks very interesting. I might switch a few docker containers to use it before trying to use it natively.

unix:/filesocketheadache (problems) verses unix:@abstractsocketmagic (problem solved)

Try Nginx Unit to get away from the php-fpm complexity. It runs on http by default so it's super easy to spin up and access by itself (no need for an extra http server) or behind another http gateway as a simple proxy.
