I posted this for womens day - a really really under rated person.

Collaboration?

Curl is great. I use curl. Most developers use curl. But “you can call an API with curl” and “curl is enough as an API working environment” are two very different claims.

The problem is that real API work is almost never just one request typed into a terminal like some kind of beautifully minimalist Unix haiku. It usually turns into auth, environments, copied headers, reused payload fragments, request chains, documentation, testing, debugging, sharing examples with teammates, reviewing changes in Git, and trying not to break prod because you forgot to swap one token or one base URL.

At that point, people are not really using “just curl” anymore. They are using curl plus shell scripts, plus notes, plus env files, plus copied commands from Slack, plus random JSON files, plus tribal knowledge. Which is fine, until it becomes annoying, fragile, and weirdly hard to collaborate around.

I guessl postman pivoted - didn’t die really. Now they are a more of a AI Infra company - https://blog.astromode.ai/blog/hello-astro-ai/

Also httpie is great - you may like Voiden.We opensourced some days back and are not just a postman clone !

Take a look here maybe : https://github.com/VoidenHQ/voiden

You bring a regulation - can you really enforce it?

I think the real breakthrough will come when we will be able to make powerful microbatteries.
