  Description     : Web API development environment

Hoppscotch is light-weight, web based API development suite. It was built from
ground up with ease of use and accessibility in mind providing all the
functionality needed for API developers with minimalist, unobtrusive UI. It is
free-to-use and as an added perk completely Open Source!

### **Features**

❤️ **Lightweight:** Crafted with minimalistic UI design.

⚡️ **Fast:** Send requests and get/copy responses in real-time.

**HTTP Methods**

- `GET` - Requests retrieve resource information
- `POST` - The server creates a new entry in a database
- `PUT` - Updates an existing resource
- `PATCH` - Very similar to `PUT` but makes a partial update on a resource
- `DELETE` - Deletes resource or related component
- `HEAD` - Retrieve response headers identical to those of a GET request, but 
without the response body.
- `CONNECT` - Establishes a tunnel to the server identified by the target 
resource
- `OPTIONS` - Describe the communication options for the target resource
- `TRACE` - Performs a message loop-back test along the path to the target 
resource
- `<custom>` - Some APIs use custom request methods such as `LIST`. Type in 
your custom methods.

🔥 **PWA:** Install as a Progressive Web App on your device.

- Instant loading with Service Workers
- Offline support
- Low RAM/memory and CPU usage
- Add to Home Screen
- Desktop PWA

🚀 **Request:** Retrieve response from endpoint instantly.

1. Choose `method`
2. Enter `URL`
3. Send

- Copy/share public "Share URL"
- Generate/copy request code snippets for 10+ languages and frameworks
- Import `cURL`
- Label requests

🔌 **WebSocket:** Establish full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP 
connection.

📡 **Server-Sent Events:** Receive a stream of updates from a server over an 
HTTP connection without resorting to polling.

🌩 **Socket.IO:** Send and Receive data with SocketIO server.

🦟 **MQTT:** Subscribe and Publish to topics of an MQTT Broker.

🔮 **GraphQL:** GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for 
fulfilling those queries with your existing data.

- Set endpoint and get schema
- Multi-column docs
- Set custom request headers
- Query schema
- Get query response

🔐 **Authorization:** Allows to identify the end-user.

- None
- Basic
- Bearer Token
- OAuth 2.0
- OIDC Access Token/PKCE

📢 **Headers:** Describes the format the body of your request is being sent as.

📫 **Parameters:** Use request parameters to set varying parts in simulated 
requests.

📃 **Request Body:** Used to send and receive data via the REST API.

- Set `Content Type`
- FormData, JSON, and many more
- Toggle between key-value and RAW input parameter list

👋 **Response:** Contains the status line, headers, and the message/response 
body.

- Copy response to clipboard
- Download response as a file
- View response headers
- View raw and preview of HTML, image, JSON, XML responses

⏰ **History:** Request entries are synced with cloud / local session storage to 
restore with a single click.

📁 **Collections:** Keep your API requests organized with collections and 
folders. Reuse them with a single click.

- Unlimited collections, folders, and requests
- Nested folders
- Export and import as a file or GitHub gist

_Collections are synced with cloud / local session storage_

🌐 **Proxy:** Enable Proxy Mode from Settings to access blocked APIs.

- Hide your IP address
- Fixes [`CORS`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS) 
(Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) issues
- Access APIs served in non-HTTPS (`http://`) endpoints
- Use your Proxy URL

📜 **Pre-Request Scripts β:** Snippets of code associated with a request that is 
executed before the request is sent.

- Set environment variables
- Include timestamp in the request headers
- Send a random alphanumeric string in the URL parameters
- Any JavaScript functions

📄 **API Documentation:** Create and share dynamic API documentation easily, 
quickly.

1. Add your requests to Collections and Folders
2. Export Collections and easily share your APIs with the rest of your team
3. Import Collections and Generate Documentation on-the-go


✅ **Post-Request Tests β:** Write tests associated with a request that is 
executed after the request's response.

- Check the status code as an integer
- Filter response headers
- Parse the response data
- Set environment variables
- Write JavaScript code

🌱 **Environments** : Environment variables allow you to store and reuse values 
in your requests and scripts.

- Unlimited environments and variables
- Initialize through the pre-request script
- Export as / import from GitHub gist
