### **Features** ❤️ **Lightweight:** Crafted with minimalistic UI design. ⚡️ **Fast:** Send requests and get/copy responses in real-time. **Methods** - `GET` - Requests retrieve resource information - `HEAD` - Retrieve response headers identical to those of a GET request, but without the response body. - `POST` - The server creates a new entry in a database - `PUT` - Updates an existing resource - `DELETE` - Deletes resource or related component - `CONNECT` - Establishes a tunnel to the server identified by the target resource - `OPTIONS` - Describe the communication options for the target resource - `TRACE` - Performs a message loop-back test along the path to the target resource - `PATCH` - Very similar to `PUT` but makes a partial update on a resource - `` - Some APIs use custom request methods such as `LIST`. Type in your custom methods. 🌈 **Make it yours:** Customizable combinations for background, foreground and accent colors. **Theming:** [Customize now ✨](https://hoppscotch.io/settings) - Choose theme: System, Light, Dark (default) and Black - Choose accent color: Blue, Green (default), Teal, Purple, Orange, Pink, Red, and Yellow - Toggle multi-colored headings - Toggle auto-scroll to response _Customized themes are synced with local session storage_ 🔥 **PWA:** Install as a [PWA](https://developers.google.com/web/progressive-web-apps) on your device. **Features** - Instant loading with Service Workers - Offline support - Low RAM/memory and CPU usage - Add to Home Screen - Desktop PWA 🚀 **Request:** Retrieve response from endpoint instantly. - Choose `method` - Enter `URL` - Send **Features** - Copy/share public "Share URL" - Generate/copy request code for `JavaScript XHR`, `Fetch` and `cURL` - Import `cURL` - Label requests 🔌 **WebSocket:** Establish full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection. - Send and receive data - Basic and Bearer Token authentication 📡 **Server Sent Events:** Receive a stream of updates from a server over a HTTP connection without resorting to polling. 🌩 **Socket.IO:** Send and Receive data with SocketIO server. 🦟 **MQTT:** Subscribe and Publish to topics of a MQTT Broker. 🔮 **GraphQL:** GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data. - Set endpoint and get schemas - Multi-column docs - Set custom request headers - Query schema - Get query response 🔐 **Authentication:** Allows to identify the end user. **Types** - None - Basic - Bearer Token - OAuth 2.0 - OIDC Access Token/PKCE 📢 **Headers:** Describes the format the body of your request is being sent as. 📫 **Parameters:** Use request parameters to set varying parts in simulated requests. 📃 **Request Body:** Used to send and receive data via the REST API. **Options** - Set `Content Type` - Add or remove Parameter list - Toggle between key-value and RAW input parameter list 👋 **Responses:** Contains the status line, headers and the message/response body. - Copy response to clipboard - Download response as a file - View preview of HTML responses ⏰ **History:** Request entries are synced with cloud / local session storage to restore with a single click. 📁 **Collections:** Keep your API requests organized with collections and folders.
