ATAC is a feature-full terminal-based API client similar to Postman, Insomnia, or Bruno, built in Rust with a TUI interface. It is free, account-less, and works fully offline.

Use cases

  • send http requests from the terminal
  • test rest apis without leaving the command line
  • postman alternative that runs in a tui
  • manage api request collections offline
  • debug api endpoints without a gui
  • use an api client with vim keybindings

When to choose

  • you live in the terminal and want a Postman-like tool
  • you need an offline, account-free API client
  • you prefer lightweight native tools over Electron apps
  • you want vim-style keybindings for API testing

When to avoid

  • you need team collaboration or cloud-synced collections
  • you prefer a graphical interface
  • you need advanced features like automated API test suites or mocking servers
