Hi, one of the makers of RecipeUI. Happy to hear this is something you liked! We're still finding edge cases when it comes to parsing cURL commands, so if you find any that we missed please file an issue or send us a message (here or discord).
Currently, we're not convincing enough for the team use case that tackles many of the things you're describing (especially auth). Thanks for the feedback!!!
We're closely working on an API Storybook that'll be more native to a codebase and a service. Would love to reach out and hear more about your Postman experience!
Looking forward to your feedback when you use it! Currently we validate with mappings from TypeScript to JSONSchema. OpenAPI is definitely a gold standard, but I think JSONSchema is fairly strong as well.
We're still considering better typing solutions like ZOD or OpenAPI wrappers, but our focus right now is core feature parity as an API tool.
We'll do a better job with written documentation! We forgot that video isn't always a medium that people prefer.
Hoppscotch is great! We have the same mindset as the founder that most API tools are outdated and were built a long time ago.
Many API tools are lightweight reskins of Postman and we truly wanted to offer something different. Which is why we're leading with a type-safety angle and we're looking to innovate with other ideas! +1 to @easygenes comment's below
I was almost convinced to use electron because it uses the same language as the frontend (JS) and has "better" support for production apps.
Ultimately went with Tauri because more people need to push the needle with alternatives and wanted to be there. Most ppl that build electron apps can definitely use Tauri because they're probably not writing much backend code.
Also glad to hear any other feedback you have :)
