Introduction
In this rapidly evolving tech world, we see lots of dev tools getting launched every day. Most of them aren’t great that ca...

It should be noted that some of these tools have known privacy problems, and Postman—for example—is able to access any secrets or credentials stored on their servers by your use of their cloud services. They're pretty transparent about this fact in their privacy policy.
It is generally a good idea to never put sensitive information into a third party system or service unless you have an NDA and contract in place with that third party.
In order to keep yourself and your organization safe:
No amount of convenience is worth a data breach.
You mean this policy?
Note the "with your consent" and the legal obligation.
You enter into a business agreement with these kinds of services. You're partners. It may be best to avoid assuming an antagonistic relationship by default.
I do object to your assumption that I’m suggesting antagonism, my concern here is only for privacy and security.
I’m referring to this section under “Workspace contents”:
This means that Postman personnel have the ability to see inside everything you do, so if they have an internal bad actor, or they are breached, everything in your account may be compromised.
Thank you for the info. I use Insomnia over Postman but now I wonder...
Does Insomnia have same/similar privacy issue as Postman?
Which developer tools do you use most?
I'm currently doing a lot of migration work in TypeScript, and I find this tool app.quicktype.io/?l=ts very helpful. It helps me create the old interface from a JSON object easily.
Looks good. Thanks for mentioning it.
An online formatter which supports many formats : format-express.dev
I do only use postmane here.
But now I have known few tools. thank you.
I think we should also add a tool that provides access to blockchain data and infrastructure. It often allows developers, enterprises, and users to retrieve blocks, transactions, and other data from various blockchain networks through APIs.
GetBlock.io -just saying
I have one additional tool, relevant for software engineers working in a team in an agile environment: beyonddone.com.
BeyondDone aggregates todos and accomplishments across Github, Jira, and Confluence.
Hey there @rujorgensen! drop us an email at info@documatic.com. We'll be happy to give you access without a company email :)
right? how can I possibly test before bringing this to the team if I can't use my personal repos?
Hey there @nickbarrow! drop us an email at info@documatic.com. We'll be happy to give you access without a company email :)
Thanks a lot for sharing
I'm in for Documatic, cause in my team we keep writing codes and logic that are at some other part of our codebase, written months ago.
Documatic does not allow email domains like gmail.com, either you use some random disposable mail or company email
