Bootsmann is an opensource C++ alternative to Postman/Insomnia/Hoppscotch for simple HTTP REST API testing.

It is especially useful for embedded devices and local development, where low memory usage and fast response times are crucial.

Features

  • Lean: Designed to be lightweight - low memory footprint and resource usage.
  • Native: Built with a C++ compiler - no Electron or other web-based frameworks used.
  • Direct calls: Uses direct system calls to run the requests at highest speed - no JS-based middleware, therefore fast and efficient.
  • Offline-capable: Can be used without an internet connection, making it suitable for local development and testing, especially for embedded devices.
  • Secure: Does not upload any user data or API keys, ensuring privacy and security. No registration or login required.
  • Intuitive: Provides a simple (but functional) graphical user interface.
  • Open source: Available under the MIT License, allowing for free use, modification, and distribution.
