Reqit just crossed 700+ downloads and 70 stars.
Built as a local-first, Git-native API client. No cloud, no account, just your APIs and your workflow.
Appreciate everyone supporting it. More to come.

Once you're set up, add assertions, run the whole collection, or spin up a mock server so your frontend isn't blocked waiting on the backend.
Everything stays local and lives in git beside your code. Open source.

650+ downloads. 66 stars.
reqit keeps growing — local-first, git-native, and built for devs who are tired of cloud-locked API clients.

Hey guys, today I finished building batch email sending for Sendlib. You can now send one request to our batch endpoint with hundreds of recipients.
Sendlib handles the background queue, Gmail rate limits, and exponential backoff automatically, so you don't have to build that infrastructure yourself.
Once you create a batch, we instantly give you a batchId that you can use to monitor its status and track how many emails have been sent or failed through our API. You can also personalize each email using variables like {{name}} and {{company}}. Batch sending is currently available on the Pro plan.
Check it out: sendlib.samueltuoyo.com/docs…
API testing shouldn't feel like managing a cloud account.
Reqit is local-first, Git-native, and built for developers who just want to test their APIs.
No login.
No telemetry.
No cloud dependency.
Just open Reqit and ship.
Open source API tooling, built differently.

Coming soon to reqit: real-time APIs that actually work
We heard you — gRPC, SSE, and WebSockets haven't been reliable. Here's what we're fixing:
SSE
- Streams no longer cut off after 30 seconds
- Reconnects on its own and remembers where it left off (Last-Event-ID)
- Big messages won't get cut off anymore
WebSockets
- Now supports custom headers, cookies, and subprotocols — so more real servers will accept your connection
- Binary messages work correctly instead of showing up garbled
gRPC
- This is the big one: we're replacing the current workaround with a real gRPC client, so it will connect to actual gRPC servers
- Adds server reflection (drop in a URL, methods auto-load)
- Supports proto files, all streaming types (client, server, bidirectional), and canceling a call at any time
These fixes come in phases, starting with making the basics stable first. Thanks for your patience — more details and release notes as each phase ships.

Heads-up: Users on builds before `v1.2.0` won't see the update prompt — the updater wasn't active yet. Please grab the new binary manually from [github.com/HalxDocs/reqit/re…](github.com/HalxDocs/reqit/re…). Future releases will auto-update. Sorry for the one-time hassle.
reqit v1.2: faster, safer, better.
Cut peak memory in half, closed SSRF and DNS-rebinding gaps, and moved storage to per-collection files for instant lookups. Plus a draggable assistant bot and a dedicated GraphQL view.
