Its interface is similar to postman, allows collections, is MUCH lighter and does not require login. Much better than postman.

Pro: + Interface is very similar to Postman + Completely offline + Client is open source + Actively updated. + Light weight. + MIT License + Easy to integrate with version control unlike Postman where a collection is combined in a single file.

Con: - UI/UX needs more refining. - Closed source "Premium (Golden)" edition - Missing translations

It's so much better than Insomnia or Postman. Postman is too much business focused and insomnia is just very very slow. While Bruno is small, fast, responsive and easy to use. It's fully open-source and does not require any login/account.

Thus exactly what I wanted!! Bruno even has Debian package repository. I'm not sure what more to ask for.

Bruno is a new and innovative open source API client, aimed at revolutionizing the status quo represented by Postman, Insomnia and similar tools out there.

Bruno stores your collections directly in a folder on your filesystem. We use a plain text markup language, Bru, to save information about API requests.

You can use git or any version control of your choice to collaborate over your API collections.
