Great question. Insomnia is still pretty early, so the feature set is limited, but all the basics are there. Most users coming from Postman comment on the great UI/UX of Insomnia.

That's great feedback. The app is (and always will be) free so de-prioritizing the pricing page is probably a good idea :)

Insomnia is still in early stages so the paid plans aren't entirely worked out yet. The goal with the pricing page was to put something up early to gauge interest. I wrote a bit more about pricing in a past comment if you're curio

Hi there. Could you reach out to support@insomnia.rest with details? I'd love to help get this running for you. The linux build uses http://appimage.org/ which should support Fedora out of the box.

Ya, ARC is a pretty good one! Have you heard how the developer is handling the announcement of the shutdown of Chrome apps in 2017? Curious if they'll hop on the Electron bandwagon too.

Thanks for the compliment! Having good UI/UX was my first goal for Insomnia so I'm glad to see it's working. - there is no way to override cookies per request yet, but that's good feedback :) - I'm working on OAuth

I covered this a little bit in the comments below, but one of the reasons I created Insomnia was because I found other tools (including Postman) to be hard to learn and use. So, for me, the main advantage is having a clean and simple (but s

Great suggestion. Websocket support is definitely something I've been thinking about adding later on. I'd love to hear any suggestions you have on what a websocket testing workflow would look like.

Thanks for the question! Insomnia is an Electron app built with with a mix of React and Elm. As an independent developer wanting to reach all platforms, Electron was basically the only option for me. And, as a web developer, it's been

Postman has a tonne of features, but this also makes the UI more difficult to learn an use. This is one of the reasons I created Insomnia. P.S. Insomnia also has code generation https://insomnia.rest/documentation/code-

Hi there. I'm the creator of insomnia and just want to say thanks for the recommendation. So far, 3.0 ditches the Chrome dependency and provides a much nicer UI, but more advanced features like sync and versioning are in the works! ~ G
