One such experiment was a simple <a href="https://github.com/warmuuh/milkman/tree/master/milkman-cli">CLI interface</a> for all your requests.</p> <p>Lately, I wondered how to best share requests, such as Http Requests, sql or other kinds.

Let me know, if you have ideas for improvements that might be useful to further boost productivity. </p> java api http slack
