Resting
Debug, inspect and test HTTP APIs visually
What is Resting?
"Resting" is a Firefox add-on designed to streamline your daily work by offering a clean and light visual HTTP client. It supports multipart, x-www-form-urlencoded, raw data request body, file upload, and various authentication methods. The add-on also allows using variables as placeholders in every part of the request and organizing them into contexts. Saved requests can be bookmarked for future use and grouped in folders. The most distinctive feature of Resting is its commitment to privacy, storing all data offline on your device.
