Posting

A powerful HTTP client that lives in your terminal.

Posting is an HTTP client, not unlike Postman and Insomnia. As a TUI application, it can be used over SSH and enables efficient keyboard-centric workflows. Your requests are stored locally in simple YAML files, so they're easy to read and version control.

Some notable features include:

• "jump mode" navigation
• environments/variables
• autocompletion
• syntax highlighting using tree-sitter
• Vim keys
• customizable keybindings
• user-defined themes
• run Python code before and after requests
• extensive configuration
• open in $EDITOR/$PAGER
• import curl commands by pasting them into the URL bar
• export requests as cURL commands
• import from Postman and OpenAPI specs
• a command palette for quickly accessing functionality
