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 🤝 .

I've not used it, but have heard of Prestige (https://github.com/sharat87/prestige). It bills itself as "A text-based HTTP client in the browser. An interface-less Postman." I hope that helps!

Shameless plug: There's also Prestige at https://prestigemad.com, which is very similar but works right in the browser. You can save your files as Gists as well. Templating with variables is also supported with `${}` syntax, like Javascript's template strings.

But gRPC support is not built yet. It's on the roadmap.

There's also https://prestigemad.com, a text based API testing tool, like Postman. I'm the developer behind it and is open source at https://github.com/sharat87/prestige.

Hey! I did the same thing, rewrite httpbin in Go, and put it up on https://httpbun.com. I did it because I needed a fast endpoint like httpbin, with a few extras, and with working redirect endpoints. I needed this for testing Prestige. (Sorry for inserting a shameless plug in here, but httpbun and httphub are just so close to each other I couldn't shut up 🙈).

Still early days at https://prestigemad.com (recently discussed at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27412445)

- Backend is a Django project, database is PostgreSQL.

- Frontend powered by Mithril.js and the editor by CodeMirror.

- Hosted on a $5 box on EC2.

- GoatCounter for analytics.

- CloudFlare for DNS, NameCheap for domain.

Also https://httpbun.com

- Backend is a vanilla Go project.

- Frontend is plain HTML and CSS, I don't recall it having any JS at all.

- Hosted on the same $5 box on EC2.

- No analytics (yet).

- CloudFlare for DNS, NameCheap for domain.

It is refreshing to see how much I can squeeze out of a $5 box. I don't intend to stay with EC2 for long, but when its cheap, I'd rather spend my time improving Prestige.
