There are some extensions for VSCode that let you define your requests in a text file and has ways to run the file and show the data. Here's one I just found: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=humao.rest-client https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=humao.re... Syntax looks like: GET https://example.com/comments/1 HTTP/1.1 ### GET https://example.com/topics/1 HTTP/1.1 ### POST https://example.com/comments HTTP/1.1 content-type: application/json { "name": "sample", "time": "Wed, 21 Oct 2015 18:27:50 GMT" }

Jetbrains IDEs also have builtin support for HTTP files. https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2023/10/intellij-idea-2023-3-eap-3/ https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2023/10/intellij-idea-2023-3... https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/exploring-http-syntax.html https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/exploring-http-syntax.ht...

I use it too - it’s excellent, I’d think most developers don’t need more than this.

  Yep, me to. Since it's just textfiles I can have them checked into git and share them. Credentials stays in a separate environments file (not checked in). I'm pretty happy with this setup.

I use the VS Code REST extension a lot but it does lack some of the aspects that make Postman easier for teams and larger projects. It's super easy to define a "collection" as an .http page for smaller and one-off needs though.

I use this one for tests on microservices endpoints. Very good at least for my use case. I recommend it.

Is it much better over bash file and curl?

  It supports curl inside as well as its custom syntax so this provides the same thing.

There's a great Emacs mode, and it looks like it works in the same way, putting it in a file: https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el https://github.com/pashky/restclient.el
