It seems odd that in a world where Web developers are mostly developing api first there are no tools that allow you to browse an unfinished but already authenticated REST api.

I would really like to have one but programming a full IDE/Project manager sounds like too big of a project.

    there are many tools like postman to test the api............ manually

    @rookiemaverick Yea but the authentication procedure doesn't change. Only the variables. It would be easy to allow the user to script that.

    I might actually start working on a tool simply because of the lack of existing tools

    @ChappIO do u mean something like oauth procedure? if so then we never had this conversation

    @DevotedSniper That would involve the developer copy-pasting tokens and values all over the place.

    @DevotedSniper Thanks for the pointer :)
    However I am a Java guy and I am already pretty familiar with http and scripting in Java so I think I will stick to that.

    This is going to be my biggest project so far I think.
