Hey all, it’s been almost a year since we first shared Scalar’s API Reference platform on this subreddit!

It’s been a pretty crazy year with Scalar now being downloaded > 1MM times a month (across all our packages), and we’ve been able to do some awesome partnerships with companies like gitbook to power all their users API Testing 😬

From day one the plan was always to release a dedicated Open Source, offline first API Client alongside our API reference platform and while it’s still early we’re ready to start sharing it with the world

Here’s a link to our repo where you can download or try an online version of the client

Some quick points for those curious

• Built around the OpenAPI Spec (open format so no proprietary lock in) Offline First (and always will be)
• Offline First (and always will be)
• Deep integration with Open Source Frameworks
• Integrates with Scalar Docs

here’s what we’re (planning on) releasing in coming months:

• release windows app
• pre/post request scripts
• request chaining
• local vault
• paid sync workspaces (with docs)
• Postman/Insomnia imports

If anyone has any feedback
