Lama2 is a plain-text powered REST API client & manager built for serious engineering teams.
Lama2 specifies the .l2 syntax for describing APIs, and implements a CLI to execute .l2 files. Engineers can collaborate on .l2 files using version control. Lama2 integrates nicely with
IDEs and text-editors as well. Think of Lama2 as markdown for APIs.
