An Emacs major mode for manually exploring and testing HTTP REST web services from plain-text query sheets. It runs requests and pretty-prints responses as XML, JSON, or images.
Use cases
- test REST APIs from within Emacs
- run HTTP requests from a plain text file
- pretty-print JSON and XML API responses
- copy requests as curl commands
- explore and debug web service endpoints
When to choose
- you live in Emacs and want to test APIs without leaving the editor
- you prefer plain-text, version-controllable request files over GUI clients
- you want lightweight ad-hoc HTTP exploration with syntax highlighting
When to avoid
- you need a full GUI API client with collections and environments
- you don't use Emacs
- you need automated API test suites or CI integration
