    Last time I posted this it didn't garner much interest. There have been lots of improvements and fixes since the last release. Quick list of features: - Workspaces - Tabs - Nested Folders - Lots of context menus - Response history - Plugins - Runs fully in the browser and runs offline if necessary - Chrome and Firefox extension to bypass CORS restrictions - Desktop builds for all platforms - GraphQL support - Import collections exported from Postman and Insomnia - Simple user friendly interface I built this because I love Insomnia but wanted a portable version that I could run in the…

    Creator here. I was looking for something as simple as Backblaze Personal [1] but privacy focused and open source. This is my attempt to build that. Uses PyQt6 [2] for the GUI and Pyinstaller [3] for creating the platform specific binaries. The backup engine under the hood is Restic [4]. The server code is written in Laravel [5]. All the code is on GitHub [6]. I actually really like Backblaze (even use B2 for this offering behind the scenes) so this isn't meant to throw shade their way. Just wanted a private open source alternative. Something like Bitwarden but for backups. [1]…

    Author here. This is an attempt to simplify frontend development: 1. Standards first: User interfaces should be assembled with HTML, styled with CSS, and enhanced with JavaScript. 2. Less abstractions: UI composition should be easy and require as few idioms and abstractions as possible, both on client and server. 3. Design Systems: Design should be a separate subsystem, easily accessible for developers who care about and understand design. 4. Scalability: Complex UIs should retain simplicity as the application grows. Eager to hear your thoughts!

    Hey everyone, I've been working on publishing Lama2, a Plain-Text Powered REST API Client for Teams, for the past few months. Initial work on Lama2 started after my dissatisfaction with existing tools such as Postman/Insomnia. I wanted a text-powered and git-friendly system with a lightweight GUI layer on top so that I could onboard beginners/newcomers quickly into my team while also maintaining control over data. Today, we use Lama2 extensively internal to Hexmos; almost every internal code review tends to have a `.l2` API file attached now. It has worked great for us. More about…

    Built Respectlytics because I always got confused about how to deal with privacy questionnaires when publishing my own mobile apps in app stores. For people who have read a little bit about those privacy regulations like GDPR, ePrivacy Directive, CCPA, etc., I guess it is a bit difficult to say that an analytics solution is fully compliant and no user consent is needed. But what I have come to is that the key thing is to build something that is extremely defendable, transparent, and very easy to explain if and when needed. Privacy: API rejects custom fields with 400 errors. Only stores 5…
