I’ve been enjoying verb.

All of that when I can just keep using emacs’ https://melpa.org/#/restclient.

Wow, an org mode rest client; this might be worth switching to! What I like about these is that you end up with documentation in a standard file that can live along with your APIs. Org mode can of course be saved either as org files, or exported as any number of things - whatever your team uses. Ok, time to go bully some vim users.

quite cool - i think voiden is similar in premise to verb - but it is more easier to manage for non emacs folks. But i’ll check it out - emcas will bring back the ptsd from my phd days of writing my thesis on it :D

I really think tools like voiden, hurl, and verb make sense. They make it easier to troubleshoot a system later or to share requests with other developers without leaving the repo. The only real challenge becomes handling authentication scenarios without putting secrets in plain text.
Speaking of writing a thesis, I imagine that leaves plenty of room for PTSD! I personally like the direnv support for emacs much more than other environments, and I’ve become a big fan of ripgrep and fuzzy finding.

This isn’t wrong, and it’s funny because it’s true!

Ha! I still love it though

Absolutely! Not making fun, but whenever somebody brings up Emacs in earnest, this is what I think of!
