Hey Product Hunters! 👋
I built API Tester because I wanted a lightning-fast, native macOS API testing tool that feels right at home in your menubar. As a developer, I found myself constantly needing to test APIs throughout the day, but I didn't want to switch contexts or open heavy apps.
🎯 Why I made this:
Wanted instant access to API testing without disrupting my workflow
Needed something that launches in milliseconds from the menubar
🚀 Key features:
Lives in your menubar, always ready but never in your way
Support for all HTTP methods
Custom headers and authentication
JSON pretty-printing and syntax highlighting
One-click JSON export
HTML preview mode
Super lightweight and fast
It's the API testing tool I always wanted: minimal, fast, and focused on the essentials. Built with Electron and React, but optimized to feel like a true native app.
Would love to hear your thoughts and feature suggestions! 🙏
