Hi Product Hunt! I’m Emmanuel, the developer behind RESTLab.
I built RESTLab to bring API testing, Kafka browsing, load testing, and passive security checks into one desktop app. The goal is to spend less time switching tools and more time understanding how your services behave.
All features are available without licensing restrictions. Optional donations help support development.
I’d love your feedback:
- What tasks make you switch between tools today?
- What would make RESTLab useful in your daily workflow?
- What feels confusing or needs improvement?
Thanks for trying it. I’ll be here to answer questions and hear your suggestions!
