  • devtools-frontend

    The Chrome DevTools UI

    You can paste that curl command into https://curlconverter.com/wget/ to turn it into a Wget command.

    > The reason there isn't a "Copy as wget" option, I think, is the level of control that curl allows so the request can be tailored to exactly mimic the browser.

    This is not true. You can read the code that generates the curl command and it's pretty straightforward:

    https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-frontend/blob/c9a...

    The arguments it uses are --url, --data-raw, -X/--request, -H/--header, --compressed and --insecure, all of which Wget has an analog of. I think the reason is that they don't care to do it and/or they don't want to make that dropdown menu 30 entries long.
