Good fit for Teams that want a browser-based Postman-shaped UI with self-hosted team sync.

Weak at Desktop-app feel — it's a PWA at heart; some power users prefer a native binary.

Replaces these SaaS

Insomnia · API client / HTTP request testing
Pull the official compose from docs.hoppscotch.io. Hoppscotch is browser-first — open the web UI, Settings → Import → Insomnia, paste your Insomnia v4 export JSON. The self-hosted edition adds team workspaces, shared collections, and SSO; without backend, it's a single-user PWA that stores collections in browser storage.
Postman · API client / API workspace
Hoppscotch → Settings → Import → Postman. Paste collection JSON; environments and folder structure preserved.
