Why LiteClient?

In an era of bloated developer tools, LiteClient returns to the essentials:

  • Zero Startup Time: Restores your workspace instantly.
  • Total Privacy: No cloud syncing, no accounts, and absolutely zero telemetry.
  • Pure Native UX: Uses your editor's native buttons, trees, and themes. No "Custom UI" friction.
  • Focused Features: Collections, Environments, and History—without the noise.

Core Features

  • High Performance: Native implementation for minimal memory and CPU usage.
  • Collections: Hierarchical organization for your API requests.
  • Environment Variables: Seamlessly switch between local, staging, and production.
  • Layout Flexibility: Smart two-panel or single-pane views.
  • Auth Support: Bearer Token, Basic Auth, and API Keys ready to go.
  • Postman Portability: Import and export Postman Collection v2.1 files with full metadata preservation.
  • Rich Request Building: Full support for Query Params, Headers, and JSON/Form-data bodies.

Quick Start

  1. Open the LiteClient view from the Activity Bar.
  2. Click New Request in the sidebar.
  3. Enter your URL (e.g., https://liteclient.com/hello).
  4. Hit Send.

Privacy & Security

Your API keys and sensitive requests are your business. LiteClient stores all data locally in your editor's global storage. No data ever leaves your machine unless you are the one sending the request.
