Modern API tools (lemmy.world)

this is the first meme I have ever made (yes I am that old) - so be gentle :)

what does being modern mean to you?

To be fair a lot of these things are js. I could probably write a new one faster than I could understand the existing code base.

Unfortunately I agree but there are a few that are different, for example have you tried Voiden ( https://voiden.md/) maybe? We opensourced a few weeks back.

I have not.

Though honestly I rarely use these types of tools as a back end dev.

For my own code I'm likely to use curl or maybe fetch depending.

The times I do reach for these it's usually someone else's API that I'm looking it. If they offer an openapi spec I can import then I will.

I hear this a lot right before deployment disasters. ;)
