This is hilarious to me, after using the evil things for years . Of course, there are reasons to use the hated postman and companies (may they be forever cursed). And I plan to keep using them.

But many valid points are made

curl is not great when testing configuration for various software solutions. there are a few better options than postman like httpie and another one but I forget its name.

    I did and I did not see anything in the article that would take your api and give you an equivalent statement in a variety of languages which I think is why it was nice using the programs but i has been over a year since I did it. It was a fairly high amount of convenience.
