      <p>I don't use complicated or bloated applications to test HTTP requests and API endpoints.</p>

      <p>I just use <code>curl</code> on my command line.</p>

      <p>For example, if I want to query the Drupal.org API for my user information, I can run <code>curl https://www.drupal.org/api-d7/user.json?uid=381388</code> and see the response.</p>

      <p>To see the request and response headers, status code, SSL certificate information and more, I can run <code>curl -v</code> to run it in verbose mode.</p>

      <p>If the response returns JSON, I can use <code>jq</code> to format the results.</p>

      <p>If I need to make a POST request, I can use <code>-X POST</code>, I can use <code>--data</code> or <code>--json</code> to send data and <code>--header</code> to send any required headers.</p>

      <p>curl is great program with so many options and no AI bloat, complicated UIs or paid plans.</p>

      <p>Want to see what else it can do?</p>

      <p>Just open your terminal and type <code>man curl</code>.</p>
