APIKulture
A native desktop API client built with C++ and wxWidgets as an alternative to Postman, Insomnia, and Bruno. It remembers JSONPath expressions between requests, is lightweight at about 40MB of RAM (versus ~400MB for the alternatives), and is designed to be fast. The author uses it daily.
What it addresses
Postman and Insomnia became forced-corporate-cloud and unusable for the author, and Bruno lacked the JSONPath expression persistence between requests that the author considered fundamental to their workflow.

“APIKulture. An alternative to Postman/Insomnia/Bruno. To be honest, I started this because Postman and Insomnia became forced-corporate-cloud not usable for me anymore, and Bruno lacked a feature I considered fundamental for my workflow. The feature is to remember the JSONPath expressions between requests, a feature that Bruno has implemented already. But I created this thing and I'm using it daily since then. C++ and wxWidgets, it uses 40MB of RAM, and it is super fast, instead of the 400MB used by the above mentioned programs.”
