About

Bruno is an open-source, local-first API client for exploring, testing, and documenting APIs. With native Git sync, offline data storage, and no cloud dependencies, Bruno offers developers a secure, fast, and open alternative to bloated API platforms. Trusted by 150 k+ daily users and loved by 37 k+ GitHub stargazers. Pure API Client — Bruno is not a platform or cloud SaaS. It’s a lightweight desktop app focused purely on exploring, testing, and documenting APIs — no unnecessary clutter. Local-First Security — All your data and collections stay on your machine. Nothing is synced to a third-party cloud, ensuring complete control and compliance. Native Git Sync — Collaborate and version your collections using the same workflows you already use for code — pull requests, branches, and diffs — with no proprietary lock-in. Open Source & Extensible — Backed by a passionate community, Bruno evolves transparently, with frequent contributions from developers across the world

About

NativeRest is a high-performance, memory-efficient REST API client available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Unlike Electron-based apps, it is a fully native application, which results in faster startup times and significantly lower memory and CPU usage. NativeRest supports offline work with local and cloud-based workspaces, enabling both individual and team collaboration. It includes a preconfigured proxy server to enhance privacy and security during API testing. Users benefit from an intuitive interface, powerful environment variable management, customizable HTTP methods, and code snippet generation in over 15 programming languages. A portable version is also available, requiring no installation or admin rights.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Bruno doesn't store (steal) my information via the cloud. I can work locally, and more importantly with Git. We used to struggle trying to version Postman collections in Git because they intentionally make it difficult so you buy their $$$ paid version. Bruno does this all natively as everything is just a text file.

Cons

  • There are some UI/UX issues, but nothing that derailed me from making it my daily driver
