## What it is
Proxyman is a native macOS HTTP(S) debugging proxy application that captures, inspects, and mocks HTTP/HTTPS and WebSocket traffic from browsers, iOS simulators, and Android devices. It includes advanced tools like SSL proxying, breakpoints, Map Local/Remote, scripting, and network condition simulation, with companion iOS/Android apps and a commercial license model.

## Use cases
- debug http requests from ios app
- capture https traffic on macos
- inspect api responses from android device
- mock api responses during development
- debug websocket traffic
- intercept nodejs python ruby http traffic
- charles proxy alternative for mac
- throttle network conditions to test app

## When to choose
- you develop on macOS and want a polished native GUI debugger for HTTP/HTTPS traffic
- you need to capture traffic from iOS simulators or Android devices with minimal setup
- you want built-in mocking tools like breakpoints, Map Local, and scripting without writing custom proxies

## When to avoid
- you need a fully free open-source tool - Proxyman is commercial with paid licenses for advanced features
- you primarily debug on Linux/Windows where the macOS-native experience is not the focus
- you need headless or CI-automated traffic capture rather than interactive GUI debugging
