For a team using VSCode you can try the vscode-restclient[1] But really Hurl looks really interesting, being editor agnostic is the best solution for your problem, I agree. [1] https://github.com/Huachao/vscode-restclie

In this case open-source does not mean only open-source books. Anna's Archive is a shadow library, they also maintain a pirate library mirror. So you can think of them like an anarchist(?) archivist? I think only the high-speed direct
