Reviewer scorecard
“API collections in git, no account required, and offline-first. This is how API clients should work.”
“10x smaller bundles than Electron with native performance. Use your web frontend with a Rust backend.”
“One-time purchase vs subscription is refreshing. Git-native collections mean your API tests are version-controlled.”
“The Electron alternative that delivers on the promise of small, fast desktop apps. Tauri 2.0 adds mobile support.”
“Offline-first, git-native tools represent a pushback against SaaS subscriptions. Bruno leads this movement in API tools.”
“Tauri is what Electron should have been. Rust backend + webview frontend is the right architecture.”
