prestige VS postman-app-support

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.

Do you have any details on the equivalent Postman change? How long ago did Postman force users to create an account? I found this github issue, but I'm not sure if it's what everyone keeps referencing.

Possibly user agent add it to postman https://github.com/postmanlabs/postman-app-support/issues/3827

As you can see, this solution worked as expected, but it still has a big concern. The idea of using user email and checking their permission will not prevent malicious people from using an admin email, which can be easy to get with social engineering, and use programs like Insominia or Postman to get the same response as an unprotected endpoint.

You have installed Postman.

Learned about curl https://curl.se/ and played around with postman https://www.postman.com/ some more.

Postman installed

The JWT authorizer is ready to use! We can use Postman or curl to test the endpoint and the authorizer.
