Hoppscotch - HTTP client used for sending notifications through the Google API.

We began as a web-based API client at hoppscotch.io, where anyone can easily initiate API testing. Ever since then the Hoppscotch Desktop app has been a highly requested product by our community. We've been listening and are excited to announce that the day has finally arrived - today marks the launch of the public alpha version of the Hoppscotch Desktop App for macOS, Windows, and Linux!

We’re building an open-source Postman alternative.

The collective efforts and commitment of our team has led Hoppscotch towards remarkable improvements on its path to transforming the API development ecosystem. But, the speed of evolution we've experienced wouldn't have been possible without the open-source nature of Hoppscotch. A significant portion of our success is attributed to our dedicated contributors who have resolved existing issues, filed bug reports, authored blogs, created tutorials, and spread the word about Hoppscotch within their networks 🤝 .

Through the Fast Forward program, we give free services and support to open source projects and the nonprofits that support them. We support many of the world’s top programming languages (like Python, Rust, Ruby, and the wonderful Scratch), foundational technologies (cURL, the Linux kernel, Kubernetes, OpenStreetMap), and projects that make the internet better and more fun for everyone (Inkscape, Mastodon, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Terms of Service; Didn’t Read).

From the GitHub Issue itself, the maintainer did end up creating a PR to fix a related issue: https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/12983

Also, the bot filed another issue despite the complaints.

This Docker image is designed to support implementing Github Actions with Python. As of version 4.0.0., it starts with the official python docker image as the base which is a Debian OS. It specifically uses python:3-slim to keep the image size down for faster loading of Github Actions that use pyaction. On top of the base, we've installed curl gpg, git, and the GitHub CLI. We added curl and gpg because they are needed to install the GitHub CLI, and they may come in handy anyway (especially curl) when implementing a GitHub Action.
