The Hurl web app was great and has saved me a ton of time in the past.

Recently I've replaced Hurl and Postman with the REST Client extension for VS Code.

Recently acquired in fact.

Interesting; is that someone rehosting the original app?

https://hurl.it/ got bought at some point.

It was relaunched 5 months ago, and if you go on WayBack Machine, it seems it hasn't changed at all, except perhaps to add a Captcha.

I think they probably plan to do more with it, and thus there's a name conflict for hurl.dev.

A lot of people use tools like hurl for integration and smoke tests during CI runs. The extension looks nice, but it is limited in that way.

So what we really need is a nice VS Code extension for Hurl.
