In plain words
Bruno is an open-source API client designed for developers. It stores API collections directly on the filesystem, enabling native Git integration for version control and team collaboration. Built as a local application, Bruno allows developers to manage and test APIs while maintaining full control over their data through standard Git workflows.

From the sources
The API-client built for developers. Open-source. Local Native git. Bruno stores collections on your filesystem which allows you to natively interact with git for collaboration and versioning.
Collections stored as code. Works with Git, your IDE, and your agents. Open-source, local, and built for developers. Your collections are plain-text files in your repo. Everything else follows from that. Bruno is the open-source challenger to bloated, cloud-locked "platforms". A devtool should be extensible and work with the rest of your stack, not against it. Everything is folders and text files on your filesystem , co-located with the code they belong to. Branch, diff, review, and merge your API collections with the exact workflow your team already trusts. No cloud sync. No account. No login. We have zero visibility into your requests, and we're not training AI models on your data. Share…from usebruno.com

KodusOct 2025 · kodus.io · ▲145Hey everyone, Just wanted to share a quick update we just launched at Kodus. For those who don’t know it yet, Kodus is a code review agent that runs directly in your team’s Git workflow (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket… and now Azure DevOps as well). It helps maintain code quality and consistency by analyzing each PR based on your team’s own rules and repository standards. Support for Azure had been a common request — so if your team uses it, you can now plug Kodus right into your workflow and give it a try. Docs: https://docs.kodus.io/how_to_use/en/overview Repo:…
GitHits beta 0.9Jun 2026 · githits.com · ▲181It has been almost 10 years since I started the opencv-python packaging project. Scaling it to more than 100 million downloads as a side project showed me how much ease of installation and proper package distribution matter to users. It gave the computer vision ecosystem a noticeable boost. Now I have a new idea that I hope can help even more people across the broader software engineering world. A while ago, I realized I kept giving the same advice to teammates and friends when they ran into a programming issue they couldn't easily solve: go to GitHub and look at how others solved it. There…
Yaak – An open source, Git-friendly desktop API client2025 · yaak.app · ▲153Hi HN! I'm Greg and I've been working on Yaak for just over a year. I usually describe it as a Postman alternative since most developers are familiar with that, but it's targeted more toward users that just want an API client (no mocking, testing, spec design, etc). Having also created Insomnia for a similar purpose, I never thought I'd build another API client again. But, after selling Insomnia in 2019 and watching it expand into the broader feature set of Postman, I was left wanting a simpler tool again. Yaak was my answer to that. It's hard to describe how it's better than the 100 other…

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
