  • bruno

    Opensource IDE For Exploring and Testing Api's (lightweight alternative to postman/insomnia)

  • Yup, the JS glue code is something that I am very proud of. You can install any npm package via package.json. Require them inside your scripts and it just works.

    In every other tool, they treat a collection like something that can be modified only via GUI. In Bruno, its more of a developer mindset. Even if you don't have Bruno GUI, you can open it in an editor and make changes to it - just like code

    External npm package installation is unique to Bruno and afaik no other tool has this.

    Yes Auth is a big task that I am working on. Glad to see that some folks use scripts and directly implement oauth2 https://github.com/usebruno/bruno/issues/178

    Many users are surprised when they find this capabilty, It opens up a lot of possibilities - https://github.com/usebruno/bruno/issues/233#issuecomment-17...

  • insomnia

    The open-source, cross-platform API client for GraphQL, REST, WebSockets, SSE and gRPC. With Cloud, Local and Git storage.

  • I'm a long time user of Insomnia API client (https://insomnia.rest) without an account and was prompted to update the app an hour ago. I thought this was a regular feature update and accepted. After the app relaunches, the app gives me the option to create an account with them or use without an account. When I choose the latter, my data is gone. Many others are reporting the same problem (https://github.com/Kong/insomnia/issues/6577).
