Hey three.js folks,

I’m building a 3D viewer that needs to fetch model data from our backend API. Been using Postman to test and debug the API calls, but getting frustrated with their recent pricing changes.

Anyone using something better for testing REST endpoints when working with three.js projects? Ideally something lightweight that won’t slow down my dev machine while I’ve got the 3D stuff running.

Thanks!

`console.log` 🤷‍♂️, or one of the alternatives mentioned on this [r/softwaretesting](https://www.reddit.com/r/softwaretesting/comments/14ze0g9/looking_for_a_postman_alternative/) (Insomnia, Hoppscotch, Nightingale, and TestMace…).

Depends on your use case.

I use [Bruno](https://www.usebruno.com/) for quick API calls, and use [Apidog](https://apidog.com) when we need team collaboration. If you are nerdy enough, keep with curl.
