Charles Proxy

HTTP proxy / HTTP monitor / Reverse Proxy

Although thousands of developers around the globe use Wireshark and Charles Proxy, they fail to occupy the top side in the design aspect. Wireshark’s interface is robust and detailed but can be intimidating for beginners. While Charles Proxy has a more approachable interface compared to Wireshark, it might seem cluttered to some users. Fiddler’s UI is information-rich and customizable, yet, it can be a bit overwhelming for beginners.
