Hoppscotch
Open-source API testing tool in the Postman mold, mostly client-side with an optional lightweight backend for synced collections. Very low operational overhead compared to most apps here.

β Full Stack
Vue.js frontend does the bulk of the work (constructing/sending requests directly from the browser), with an optional Node.js backend for account sync, Postgres for stored collections.
π Scaling Analysis
Because most request execution happens client-side in the browser, the server-side footprint is minimal and trivially scales β the sync backend is the only stateful piece, and it's a conventional Postgres-backed API that scales the normal way.
π Running on Nexlayer
Can run as a single static frontend pod for the core tool, or add a backend + postgres pod pair for synced workspaces; point the backend URL env at the API pod via <podName>.pod:<port>. mirror.gcr.io/library/node covers the optional backend build.
