I like Rest Client for VS Code because, its offline opensource and git repo friendly. It also does soap request. All do what i need. Shared env feature also a plus. We can store some info in code-workspace settings. Some info stored in user settings. Then the info used easly all over "http" files. like {{ token }} So everyone can see and share what they need. It also super fast and light because of vs code.
