WTF. 🤯 Postman's server's are down and you can't even use desktop app with your local APIs! This is exactly why I made yaak.app. It works offline, is open source, has no telemetry, no VC funding, and even syncs with Git! Give it a try and let me know what you think ✨

Okay, going to remove the responsive layout switching to an explicit control. - Many of you want a top/bottom layout - Responsive switching was nice, but annoying sometimes - Preference is stored on a per-workspace level

📣 The 2025.5 Beta adds the ability to install plugins from the new plugin directory! The bad part? There's only 1 plugin. More plugin APIs will be added to the beta for things like themes and folder/workspace actions, so let me know what else you want to see.

When implementing persistent connections (keep-alive), should connections be scoped to request or the workspace?
