Tools that Make Me Productive as a Software Engineer

• bruno

  55 18,935 9.9 JavaScript

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

  

Now, I'm looking at trying Bruno, a new tool I heard about. Bruno has all the features you'd want, like support for websockets. What's great about Bruno is it only costs $19 for a one-time payment, which seems like a good deal. I want to see how well it works for me and if it's as good as it sounds. I'm excited to try it out and maybe talk about it later.

• Newman

  241 6,718 7.5 JavaScript

  Newman is a command-line collection runner for Postman

  

At first, I used Postman for testing APIs because it had a lot of features. But I switched to Insomnia because it was easier to use and kept everything organized. The big problem with Insomnia was that it deleted all my saved work when it made me create an account to keep using it.
