Posting is a terminal-native HTTP client designed for developers who build and test REST APIs. Unlike traditional GUI tools that require a graphical environment, Posting works seamlessly over SSH and in remote development scenarios where full desktop applications aren't practical.

The tool combines the power of HTTP clients like Postman and Insomnia with the efficiency of terminal-based workflows. Your requests are stored in simple YAML files, making them easy to read, version control, and share with your team.

Key capabilities include:

Jump mode for rapid navigation between requests
Environment variables with intelligent autocompletion
Syntax highlighting powered by tree-sitter
Vim keybindings for keyboard-centric workflows
Custom themes and keybindings to match your preferences
Python scripting to run code before and after requests
Import/export functionality for curl commands, Postman collections, and OpenAPI specifications
Command palette for quick access to all features
Integration with your editor via $EDITOR and $PAGER

Whether you're a backend engineer testing APIs, a frontend developer working with REST endpoints, or a fullstack developer managing multiple services, Posting provides a lightweight alternative to curl while maintaining the flexibility of terminal-based development.
