We are super excited to launch Sparrow and mark it open for the world. 🎉 This FREE and Open Source API testing tool is nothing of ordinary. You may think of this as yet another API Testing tool but we realised most of the tools focus on just giving a "duplicate" experience and not focus on creating something that maybe useful and beneficial for 2024 and 2025. Don't get us wrong! We loved Postman, but this decade requires next evolution and that's what Sparrow is. It is for students, new devs, small companies, big companies and enterprises. It is for everyone! ⭐️ Here is what to expect ⭐️ ✅ Self Hosting support - When we use Postman, we are always worried about our devs saving the APIs on Postman's server and that was one of the most uncomfortable thing for us. Till now many companies are not able to constraint developers to keep important secrets safe in Postman and this significantly reduces the risk of such exposure. ✅ Security by default - Some decisions in Postman related to sharing postman collections as JSON, accidental publishing of collection were taken to encourage more people use the tool but it came with a setback. We have seen so many postman collections published online which were not supposed to be published with sensitive information. In Sparrow, you just have one way to share, that's adding user as collaborator. So no security lapses! ✅ AI Support - Hey you can't talk about a tool in 2024 without talking about AI. When you open an API in Sparrow, the Sparrow AI agent sets that as context and will give you answer with respect to the API itself. Ask the Sparrow AI to generate a axios request or your API resut in Rust, or you want sample post bodies to be generated? just ask it along. It doesn't end here, we have AI generated documentation as well. Which allows you to generate documentation for your frontend developers. ✅ FREE collaboration - When you invite your colleagues or friends in Sparrow, we don't enforce ANY limit in terms of how many APIs you can create there for free unlike some other tools. Collaboration is at core of Sparrow and that's what makes it not another API Testing tool. ✅ Different API supports - We support REST and Websockets currently. GraphQL, SocketIO are WIP and you would be able to use them soon. We release every 2 weeks and it improves by a LOT in every release. ✅ Different environment support - This may feel not new but try it once and you would know what we are talking about. Switching environment and making sense of what it can accomplish has never been before this easy. ✅ Test Flows - Oh yes we wanna talk about a key feature we built from ground up, it allows you to test multiple APIs together in a sequence. We did ground level research with 100s of developers on what they would want and came up with current experience. Lastly, this is just a start. We don't want a tool that does everything but ensure whatever it does, it does it in the best way possible. We are working tirelessly to make it tool of choice for every single developer on planet. And did I mention it is NOT electron application? Yes! you heard it right! It is built on Tauri - using svelte JS and Rust, two of the blazing fast framework + langugage combo. It uses your own OS's browser agent so it is super light weight and super smooth.
