Reviewer scorecard
“API collections in git, no account required, and offline-first. This is how API clients should work.”
“Jest-compatible API with Vite's speed. ESM and TypeScript work without configuration. The watch mode is instant.”
“One-time purchase vs subscription is refreshing. Git-native collections mean your API tests are version-controlled.”
“If you're using Vite, Vitest is the obvious choice. Even without Vite, the speed improvement over Jest is significant.”
“Offline-first, git-native tools represent a pushback against SaaS subscriptions. Bruno leads this movement in API tools.”
“Vitest is replacing Jest as the default test runner. Speed and modern JavaScript support drive the migration.”
