We've all been there — you just need to fire a quick API request
to check a response, but your options are:
Boot up Postman (and wait for that Electron app to load 🐢)
Install a VS Code extension just for this
Remember the exact curl syntax you always forget
I got tired of it, so I built a lightweight API request
tester that runs entirely in your browser.
What it does
API Request Generator & Tester
Choose your HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH)
Set custom headers
Pass a request body (JSON, form data)
Inspect the response — status, headers, body
Zero install. Zero sign-up. Just open and use.
It's essentially a no-friction Postman alternative for when
you just need to poke at an endpoint quickly.
Why browser-based?
The goal was to remove every possible barrier between
"I need to test this" and actually testing it.…
