   Intercept.rest – Faster API debugging▲89

   Sharing an internal tool that accelerated my development work 10-fold, especially with API debugging. Thought fellow developers here might find it useful. As a developer, I often have trouble reproducing errors at the client end. https://intercept.rest lets me debug and monitor API requests and responses. It is similar to the Network tab in Chrome Developer Tools but works for any API: mobile apps, webhooks, frontend etc. After I shared it with a close circle of friends, they found it incredibly useful and even found new use cases, I never imagined. Been a long time lurker here and…

   Inspect-HTTP-Proxy: a tool to pretty-print JSON requests/responses▲8

   A simple Go-based HTTP proxy designed for detailed inspection of requests and responses. It logs traffic to the console with colorization, automatic decompression, and formatting for common content types, while remaining transparent to the client application. Ideal for debugging API interactions, understanding middleware behavior, or simply getting a clear view of HTTP traffic flow with jq-like pretty-printing & colorization of request/response. Automatically redacts parts of Authorization header to avoid token leakage.

    Httpdbg – A tool to trace the HTTP requests sent by your Python code▲200

    Hi, I created httpdbg, a tool for Python developers to easily debug HTTP(S) client requests in Python programs. I developed it because I needed a tool that could help me trace the HTTP requests sent by my tests back to the corresponding methods in our API client. The goal of this tool is to simplify the debugging process, so I designed it to be as simple as possible. It requires no external dependencies, no setup, no superuser privileges, and no code modifications. I'm sharing it with you today because I use it regularly, and it seems like others have found it useful too—so it might be…
