Description

Bruno is a developer-first, open-source API client that’s redefining what an API tool should be. Built from the ground up for speed, privacy, and simplicity, Bruno offers everything developers need to explore, test, and document APIs without the cloud lock-in, telemetry, or bloat that’s become standard elsewhere. Instead of chasing “platform” status, Bruno focuses on doing one thing exceptionally well: being a pure API client. It’s completely local... all your requests, environments, and collections stay on your machine. Nothing is uploaded or tracked. The result is a faster, safer, and more transparent workflow that developers actually enjoy using. Bruno is also Git-native, meaning collections live in plain text and can be versioned, diffed, and reviewed just like code. Branching, merging, and pull requests all just work — no proprietary formats or walled gardens. For teams that already use GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket, Bruno slots right in with zero friction. Under the hood, Bruno supports Postman and Swagger imports, test scripting in JavaScript, a powerful CLI, VS Code extension, and CI/CD integration for automated API testing. Since its launch in 2022, Bruno has seen explosive community growth: over 2.5 million downloads, 150,000+ daily users, and 37,000+ GitHub stars. Trusted by engineers at Microsoft, Capital One, GitHub, and FedEx, Bruno is proving that developer tools don’t need a cloud backend to scale , they just need to respect how developers actually work. In short: Bruno is what the API client should have been all along ... local, fast, Git-based, and open-source.

Description

Scalar is an innovative, open-source API platform that empowers developers to create, document, test, and oversee APIs within an integrated, interactive framework aligned with the OpenAPI standard. This platform elegantly converts OpenAPI specifications into visually appealing and interactive API documentation, enabling users to navigate endpoints and execute requests straight from the interface, thereby merging comprehensive documentation with a fully functional API client seamlessly. It features a native REST API client capable of sending requests, examining responses, managing authentication methods like API keys and OAuth2, and utilizing environment variables as well as dynamic parameters. Additionally, Scalar provides capabilities for SDK generation, version control of API specifications with Git integration, and maintaining documentation that remains in sync with the API itself through Markdown or MDX workflows. Furthermore, Scalar's user-friendly design and extensive feature set make it an indispensable tool for modern development teams looking to enhance their API workflows.
