• Need an app that sniffs HTTP/HTTPS requests that are made by apps

  Maybe not exactly what you're looking for, but if you could side-load on windows this app should work. https://httptoolkit.com/. Source: 11 months ago

• Using Elementor can I create repeating blocks like this?

  Use https://httptoolkit.com/ but it's getting a bit off-topic :). Source: 11 months ago

• Ask HN: Side project of more that $2k monthly revenue what's your project?

  I run HTTP Toolkit (https://httptoolkit.com) which passed $2k a couple of years back. No longer a side project, as it's made enough money for me to work on it full time for a fair while now, but it certainly started that way, and it's still a one-man show (plus many wonderful open-source contributors). I suspect that'll be a common theme in answers here though: if you have a side project making $2k a month, in... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• why is my app not making any api requests after being deployed?

  You can use tools like https://httptoolkit.com/ to check the requests. Source: over 1 year ago

• I hacked Gumroad's API and broke a bunch of tools

  >I guess it would be an interesting experiment to create a proxy that captures any values going out to gumroad's license verification api endpoint and change all server responses to be true instead of false. Ditto for altering the number of uses of a product in case there is a limit there too. You don't need to create a custom proxy for that. There are many general-purpose tools that will let you inspect... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  Previously I had some success with this https://httptoolkit.tech/ and running the app on android emulator. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Only around 5% of Indie Hackers products make more than $100k/year

  That said, for the stereotypical SaaS & software indie products, I'd expect the profit margin (before the indie hacker's own salary) to be easily 80%+ anyway, so it's not a huge difference. I have a indie software product (httptoolkit.tech), and the expenses to actually run the product (i.e. Excluding my salary & personal expenses like coworking) are less than 5% of revenue every month, which I think is not...

• Decrypting TLS In Wireshark For Homegrown Application

  As another commenter suggested, for HTTPS traffic, a tool like Telerik’s Fiddler or HTTP Toolkit will probably serve you better than trying to decrypt in Wireshark. Wireshark gives you a view of packets leaving and entering an interface but can’t inherently tell you anything about their contents if they are encrypted, while Fiddler and HTTP Toolkit essentially act as a local man-in-the-middle and intercept...

• Ask HN: How to Monetize Open-Source Software?

  > Monetization via Paid Premium Version / Open Core This point is interesting, because it assumes the only way to do premium is with a closed-source version, losing the open-source benefits. Personally I've had good success (i.e. Comfortably enough income as a solo bootstrapped project that I can work on open source full time) doing a freemium approach that's 100% open-source for http://httptoolkit.tech Yes,... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Different response Httpie vs Httpx ( python )

  It's really difficult to help you debug this. Generally my advice is to fire up man in the middle network inspector like https://httptoolkit.tech/ or https://mitmproxy.org/ and see whether those two requests are identical for sure. Source: almost 2 years ago

• How to record & replay http traffic in Android and iOS apps

  I've had really good experience with Http Toolkit as a proxy. Very user friendly. QA loves it for Android. Source: about 2 years ago

• Postman Now Supports gRPC

  > One of the issues I found with http clients I looked into is that they often don't provide enough functionality to hook into the request process. Either before or after a request is executed to add to the headers or parameters of the request or getting the results of the request. I find that httpkit (or just mitmproxy) often gives me decent insight to the actual requests. I don't know about altering requests "in... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Keep API Key Outside of Gradle and Git

  This tactic works well when you're open-sourcing applications. One way of fetching secrets is by downloading the APK. The second is by using tools such as HTTP Toolkit. If you manage to reverse-engineer an API, you'll be able to gain an in-depth understanding of client-server communication. Source: about 2 years ago

• PSA: Stop using complicated DISPLAY pipelines

  This feature is also useful if you run a HTTP proxy (such as https://httptoolkit.tech/) on the windows side. Just use HOSTNAME.local as the hostname. Source: over 2 years ago

• Docker is updating and extending our product subscriptions

  Same with Telerik Fiddler recently. Good piece of software for debugging network requests on Windows. Was free for as long as I've known it existed. Telerik recently bought by 'Progress' (ironic), software re-written in Electron and now charges a subscription to use it. Glad HTTP Toolkit is now available free for most standard tasks - https://httptoolkit.tech/. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
