Everyone seems to hate this template.

Well having decent documentation is kind of rare.

Thanks for this.

I posted this for womens day - a really really under rated person.

They do !

Here’s how to get started : https://docs.voiden.md/docs/getting-started-section/getting-started/openapi-imports

Unfortunately I agree but there are a few that are different, for example have you tried Voiden ( https://voiden.md/) maybe? We opensourced a few weeks back.

Postman was great when it made APIs simple, but over time all the accounts, cloud sync, and extra features kind of slowed down the core workflow. And then a lot of clients just ended up copying that model instead of rethinking it.

On the optimistic side we are seeing some stuff that want to rethink this: tools like Voiden and Yaak with a few new approaches like  Git-native workflows, reusable request pieces, more composable setups basically making API work feel more like actual dev work again.

Collaboration?

Curl is great. I use curl. Most developers use curl. But “you can call an API with curl” and “curl is enough as an API working environment” are two very different claims.

The problem is that real API work is almost never just one request typed into a terminal like some kind of beautifully minimalist Unix haiku. It usually turns into auth, environments, copied headers, reused payload fragments, request chains, documentation, testing, debugging, sharing examples with teammates, reviewing changes in Git, and trying not to break prod because you forgot to swap one token or one base URL.

At that point, people are not really using “just curl” anymore. They are using curl plus shell scripts, plus notes, plus env files, plus copied commands from Slack, plus random JSON files, plus tribal knowledge. Which is fine, until it becomes annoying, fragile, and weirdly hard to collaborate around.

I guessl postman pivoted - didn’t die really. Now they are a more of a AI Infra company - https://blog.astromode.ai/blog/hello-astro-ai/

Also httpie is great - you may like Voiden.We opensourced some days back and are not just a postman clone !

Take a look here maybe : https://github.com/VoidenHQ/voiden

You bring a regulation - can you really enforce it?

But a true easy to use discord alternative is still not there.

I think the real breakthrough will come when we will be able to make powerful microbatteries.
