What lightweight API testing tools are you using in 2025?

2•themast•3h ago
Postman feels bloated lately, especially for quick testing or scripting. Curious what people are using instead, either CLI or minimal GUI tools.

I’ve bounced between Insomnia, Bruno, and REST Client, but they all seem to lack one thing. Feels like we need a blend of Postman’s structure with a CLI tool’s speed.

I’m looking for something that plays nicely with markdown-based API docs. Sometimes I just want to trigger endpoints directly from docs — maybe something like restish with better OpenAPI support?
