Bruno — Git-Friendly API Client

Overview

Bruno is an open-source API client that stores collections as plain text files in a folder, so they live in the Git repository next to the code: versioned, reviewable in pull requests, with no account and no cloud sync (unlike Postman). The desktop app edits the files; the bru CLI runs them in a terminal or in CI.

A collection uses one of two file formats, never both:

• OpenCollection YAML (.yml, root file opencollection.yml) — the default for new and imported collections since Bruno 3.1.
• Bru (.bru, root file bruno.json) — the original format, still supported. The desktop app converts a Bru collection with Migrate to YML (Bruno 4.1 and later).
