While curl is fine, most of the time I use the REST Client extension in VS Code. While VS Code is an Electron monstrosity, assuming you already have it, that extension is less than 3MB.
Even the full-feature GUI extensions like Thunder Client are scarcely bigger.
Hate VS Code, and never let your hands touch anything other than vim or emacs? Fine, there's a number of extensions that run in the browser that do the same thing.
