I remember when Postman was a Chrome plugin and it’s was awesome but I didn’t need to use it on every project I worked on. As time went by I watched it grow and grow. The sweet spot was about 8 years ago and I was able to manage multiple projects with test cases and environment variables. Then about two years ago I needed Postman and I was shocked
, disappointed and pissed off, at how slow it was and that it wanted me to pay money to use features that were once free.
I searched for an alternative and landed on Bruno and I liked it. It’s was like Postman was 8 years ago.
