I built an online API Client using NextJS
A few weeks ago, I launched a little product that was useful for me, and I figured it could be useful for others too: Trevo, an online API Client—completely open-source and free from logins or any of that stuff.
The idea? A lightweight browser alternative to Insomnia and Postman, mainly for quick sandbox environment tests (which was my use case).
I built the most basic version and got a lot of interesting feedback, so I decided to give it a proper revamp. What started as a quick test to see if something that worked for me would work for you has now turned into a much more polished tool. So, my online API Client is packed with cool features, and besides the style overhaul, we now have:
Request history (well, this was already there); Ability to save requests in folders (!); WebSockets support (you can test a server and send/receive messages directly); Option to save requests in cURL format (so you can test them in the terminal); And last but not least, I exposed the API with a mini-doc, so now you can use it to create a 100% CORS Proxy. Meaning, if you're running into CORS issues when hitting an API from the client side, just use Trevo’s API, and we’ll handle that for you Dropping the link here—feedback is always welcome: https://trevo.rest
