Apidog▲570Development teams often struggle with using multiple tools like Postman and Swagger for API design, development, and testing. This fragmented approach leads to outdated API specs and chaotic collaboration. So we built Apidog: a single, unified API platform for team collaboration. It has a beautiful interface that makes it easy to create API spec, generate request data from API spec, validate responses, create mock data, orchestrate test scenarios, and publish API documentation. Apidog = Postman + Swagger + Mock + JMeter.

I made an API mocking tool that imports a schema, populates fake data, then runs a local server. This is helpful for testing APIs or advanced prototyping. A demo video is here: https://www.loom.com/share/abad2cdf325e4e0b9addea1e14406166?... There’s two fun things about this tool 1. the complete lack of configs and schema annotations. i.e. you don’t need to learn faker-js. You just need your existing GraphQL schema and to to swap out the server URL in your frontend code. 2. the depth. Your fake objects have relationships to other fake objects. And in proxy mode, real…

Mocktail is a free and open-source, self-hosted mock API server with a built-in dashboard and database, packaged as a single ~25 MB binary. You can run it locally or on your own infrastructure — no account or hosted service required. You can define endpoints and responses, generate realistic data per request, customize headers, status codes and latency, and inspect incoming requests in real time. With v4, I also added MCP support, so coding…
