I was browsing Github Trending a few days ago, and I accidentally found that this Postcat was on the list!
Curiosity drove me to learn about this Postcat .
Recently, it has added several interesting plug-ins, among which the ChatGPT plug-in allows users to directly experience ChatGPT without the complicated process.

What is Poscat?
Postcat is a powerful open source, cross-platform (Windows, Mac, Linux, Browsers...) API development and testing tool that supports REST, Websocket and other protocols (soon to support GraphQL, gRPC, TCP, UDP), helping you speed up the completion of API Development and testing work.
Mainly open source + plug-in ecology , it is free, has API-related core functions, suitable for small and medium teams and individual developers.
In 2022, it was rated as GVP (Most Valuable Open Source Project) by Gitee (Code Cloud). After positive feedback from many users, it has been optimized and iteratively updated for many times. Now it also has 2.0 K Star on Github.
In addition to the popular ChatGPT plugin this time, Postcat also has as many as 24 plugins covering data migration, theme update, API security, etc. These plugins conveniently expand user usage scenarios and greatly improve user efficiency. With the gradual growth of the user group, everyone's feedback and needs are increasing, and the plug-in market will become more and more abundant.
Don't worry about it becoming more and more bloated, the functions are pluggable and very flexible.
