Bruno Overview
Bruno is an open-source API client for Windows and macOS that takes a distinctive approach: it stores your API requests as plain files in a folder on your computer, so they can be version-controlled with Git like the rest of your code, rather than living in a cloud account. It lets you build and send HTTP requests, organize them into collections, manage environments and variables, write tests and scripts, and work entirely offline if you wish. This Git-friendly, local-first design appeals to developers who want their API collections tracked alongside their codebase. It uses a freemium model, with the core client free and open source. The full offline installer bundles the application and installs without an internet connection. A command-line runner executes collections in CI pipelines, and its scripting supports pre- and post-request logic. This page links to the official Bruno download.
