HTTP Toolkit

HTTP Toolkit is an open-source utility that addresses developers who work with networks and proxy. The app allows you to view all your traffic, make live edits and build more efficient requests from scratch, among other things.

The idea behind the application is to allow you to inspect the headers, bodies, metrics and other attributes of the HTTP requests and responses. Take note that this does not only apply to standard traffic, but also for the Diff HTTP so you can understand where the failures or errors came from.

The app enables you to get an overview of everything that is sent and received so that you can get a better understanding of the remote debugging or reverse engineer the web traffic to your network. In fact, you can create simulations of unstable and slow connections and errors so you get an idea about how the code would behave in different environments.

A further noteworthy feature is the live edit of HTTP responses and requests, an option that enables you to simulate the behavior of the client and server that you are working on. The editing can be done with various built-in editors for GraphQL, XML or JSON or you can select to modify the body content directly.

The program permits you to create and send requests from scratch for the purpose of exploring and debugging the API behavior. If you are part of a team, then you can save and export them and share with your team as HAR files. Alternatively, you can export them to the codebase directly and perhaps, go over them later on.

In the eventuality that you would like to better understand how HTTP code behaves in a wide variety of circumstances, test, building or debugging, then perhaps you can consider giving HTTP Toolkit a try.
