Bruno vs. Postman – Which One Do You Prefer?

I’ve been testing out Bruno as a lightweight Postman alternative, but I’m still on the fence. It’s fast, but I feel like it’s missing some features. Has anyone fully switched from Postman to Bruno, or do you use something else?

Bruno is gaining traction as a lightweight alternative to Postman, especially for those looking for an open-source, offline-first API client. It’s fast and simple but lacks some advanced features like cloud sync, team collaboration, and built-in testing frameworks that Postman offers.

If you need a more feature-rich alternative, you might consider:

:small_blue_diamond: Hoppscotch – Open-source, browser-based, and lightweight

:small_blue_diamond: Insomnia – Focuses on REST & GraphQL with great testing support

:small_blue_diamond: Thunder Client – A VS Code extension for API testing

Have you noticed any specific missing features in Bruno that are deal-breakers for you?
