What is Postmate Client?
A free, lightweight REST API client designed for Visual Studio Code. All your data stays completely local on your machine. There’s no signup or login required, so you can start using Postmate Client right away without sharing any information online.

Solution
A lightweight VS Code extension enabling developers to test APIs directly within their IDE without signups, with all data stored locally for privacy and offline access.
