## What it is
Broxy is an open-source HTTP/HTTPS intercepting proxy written in Go, built on goproxy with a Qt5-based GUI. It offers an interceptor, filtered history, a repeater, and persistent sessions for web security testing.

## Use cases
- intercept and modify http requests during web app testing
- open source burp suite alternative
- inspect https traffic through a local proxy
- repeat and replay http requests
- web application penetration testing

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight, open-source intercept proxy in Go
- you prefer a native Qt desktop GUI over browser-based tools

## When to avoid
- you need a mature, actively maintained tool - the project is a PoC superseded by yves
- you need advanced scanning or extension ecosystems like Burp Suite

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: abandoned
- function: proxy, http-server, security, gui
- domain: security, penetration-testing, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: go, cross-platform
- tags: intercepting-proxy, web-application-pentest, qt5, burp-suite-alternative, poc, desktop
