Well to be fair the value postman & co provide is more in storing multiple requests and parameter sets in a somewhat orderly fashion. But yeah ... that's not something I'd open my wallet for either.
Does curl have an easy save feature and folder structure, so you can repeatedly call and tweak http requests during production? Curl is super easy for singular calls, not for large projects.
Yes, it's called a text file. If you put .sh at the end of the file name, you can even run it directly from the command line.
You can even copy full curl commands from browsers in the network tab so you can reproduce the exact request.
It's pretty cumbersome if you have to debug APIs, let's be honest here
