  3. bruno

    Opensource IDE For Exploring and Testing API's (lightweight alternative to Postman/Insomnia)

    Project mention: Deep Dive: How Bruno 1.0 Stores API Tests Locally vs. Postman 11.0 Cloud Sync | dev.to | 2026-04-28

    After 6 months of benchmarking, case study analysis, and real-world testing, our recommendation is clear: choose Bruno 1.0 if you are an engineering team that values performance, Git integration, and zero vendor lock-in. Our data shows Bruno outperforms Postman 11.0 in every local storage metric: 400ms faster startup for 1000+ test suites, 6x lower storage overhead per test, and zero sync latency. The case study above shows teams can save $2k+ per year in licensing costs and $18k+ per year in engineering time by switching to Bruno. For teams with heavy non-technical collaboration needs, or very small test suites (<100 tests), Postman 11.0’s free tier remains a viable option, but we recommend exporting collections to Bruno for all engineering use cases. The API testing landscape is shifting toward local-first tools to avoid cloud vendor lock-in, and Bruno 1.0 is leading that charge. Try Bruno today: download it from https://github.com/usebruno/bruno, and migrate your Postman collections in minutes using the native import tool.

  4. husky

    Git hooks made easy 🐶 woof!

    Project mention: Building a Local AI Code Reviewer with Ollama That Catches Bugs Before Your Team | dev.to | 2026-06-15

    For a hook the whole team shares, use husky instead so it lives in the repo. Either way, every git commit now runs the diff past a local model first. Need to skip it for a quick WIP commit? git commit --no-verify.

  11. isomorphic-git

    Project mention: I Built a Game That Teaches Git by Making You Type Real Commands | dev.to | 2026-04-01

    But underneath the retro charm, there's a real git engine. When you type git init in the terminal, it runs git init. When you type git commit, it creates an actual commit in an actual repository. The repository lives in your browser, powered by isomorphic-git and an in-memory filesystem, but it's real. Every command, every SHA, every ref.
