Reviewer scorecard
“The most readable CLI for HTTP requests. Intuitive syntax that doesn't require remembering curl flags.”
“Revived by the Nx team and better than ever. The standard for publishing multiple npm packages from a monorepo.”
“curl is powerful but HTTPie is readable. For quick API testing, the syntax difference matters.”
“Was nearly dead, but Nx's stewardship brought it back. For npm publishing workflows, it's still the go-to.”
“The desktop app is beautiful. Colorized output and JSON formatting make API responses easy to read.”
“Nx and Turborepo are the future of monorepo tooling. Lerna is a legacy tool that works but isn't innovating.”
