Found a free open source alternative to Postman it is lightweight, completely free, local first so your API keys stay on your machine and it even has a chrome extension so you do not have to download a heavy desktop app best for small teams and devs who want simple API testing without the bloat or high pricing checkout: requestly.com

Replying to @RequestlyIO
@RequestlyIO Just tried Requestly today and wow — the fast, intuitive UI makes testing APIs so much easier. No clutter, no confusion. Just clean tools that work. If you work with APIs even a little, give it a shot! 👉 #Requestly #devtools

If you are using POSTMAN for api testing in 2025, you should upgrade to @RequestlyIO , which is lightweight, contains all basic features, add on's like network interceptor, rules, and much more.. Link: requestly.com/

Git clone -> github.com/Ronakkadhi/Indieh… Download an API client, e.g., Requestly, add your keys & start testing. p.s. Choosing Requestly over Postman, as it supports local workspaces & no logins required

Starting a business is hard & looking for tools to get started is even harder. So here is another repo to get a quick start on Indie Hacking It collects all the business essential APIs to test, e.g., @stripe, @twilio, @resend & more 👇

Have complex error scenarios you can't reproduce, but need to test something specific? @RequestlyIO can help! Whether it's third-party data you don't control, complex or rare user account data, or anything else you can think of, if you need to mock your API, Requestly can help.

I tested 4 of the most popular API clients. Here’s what I learned: Postman – feature-rich but heavy, best for enterprises. Bruno – Git-native, offline-first, OSS fans will love it. Insomnia – clean, lightweight, plugin-friendly. Requestly – elite mocking/interception, unblocks frontend teams fast. Full deep-dive, link in next post: 👇

🚀 Tired of setting up heavy tools just to test APIs? With **Requestly’s Chrome extension**, you can quickly test endpoints right from your browser — no clutter, no hassle. It’s fast, simple, and keeps you focused on building. 💡

Before we have API ready, we agree on Types (ts) of data and I mock my API responses with Requestly stub XHR/fetch. It intercepts any browser calls or responses. Responses can also be dynamic. It's a killer tool for APIs. It has so many features. #requestly #APIs #REACT

just found out about http interceptors and how they allow us to inject mock data in live responses. feels like an efficient way to test frontends for edge cases without relying on backend changes or setting up accounts and APIs to simulate scenarios. definitely spending some more time today exploring it and also skimming @RequestlyIO's code to see how they actually do it ... seems pretty fun. here's the source code, in case you are interested github.com/requestly/request…
