## ✨ Core Principles
1. 🔒 **Data Safe & Private** — Your API keys, tokens, and data stay strictly on your local machine. Nothing is ever sent to 3rd party cloud servers.
2. ⚡ **Just Call HTTP** — A minimal, clean, and intuitive interface designed to execute requests without getting in your way.
3. 📜 **History & Re-run** — Automatically save your request history and click to re-run past requests instantly.
4. 🏷️ **Tags for Filtering** — Organize your workflows with custom tags and filter your history blazingly fast.
5. 📥 **Parse Import** — Paste pure `cURL` commands or `.http` entries, and Reqly will parse them right into the builder.
Native support for WebSocket and gRPC testing would round this out perfectly, since most REST clients end up needing those eventually. Also curious if you're planning team sync or shared collections, since that tends to be the next thing people ask for once they get hooked on a new client.
Snappy launch and the Go backend really shows in how quickly requests fire off. Wish the response viewer had better diffing between requests, but overall feels like Postman without the bloat.
Love that it's a native desktop app instead of another Electron wrapper, the Wails approach feels like the right call for keeping things snappy. Privacy-first as a default for an API client is honestly rare these days.
Runs way snappier than Postman on my M1, and I genuinely appreciate that nothing leaves my machine. The Wails setup shows.
The choice to go native with Wails and Go instead of another Electron app is refreshing, especially for something that handles sensitive API tokens. The speed difference is immediately noticeable compared to the bloated clients I'm used to.
Finally a desktop api client that doesn't feel like it's weighing down my whole machine. The startup time is genuinely impressive and having everything local without an account is honestly such a relief
