I really like that the link at the bottom of the page says “check out more stuff you should be using” but that URL takes you to a page where the curl article is the only link.
Now you have syntax highlighting and JSON parsing. Total install size: ~10MB. Total startup time: instant. Total RAM usage: negligible. Total feelings of superiority: immeasurable.
As someone who often does curl API requests and also come up to idea of putting them in jq — I felt superior just by reading this, thank you
I usually plop the response in a file and nvim that. Or write “3 lines of python” if I need anything more complex.
EDIT:
Never tried jq but read up on it a little, seems hella powerfull. Also, in my workplace postman is the default tool, which I find infuriaring as hell.
Just use curl
This website is wonderful

“more coming soon. Or not. I don’t owe you shit”
A majestic site indeed. Bravo sir.
I enjoyed every bit of it [=

the hostility is hilarious 😂
especially since I had no idea what any of it means 😂 and yet it manages to sound so obvious
I feel bad that I read that page in Chrome. I’m a failure of a techie.
Tomorrow I must atone by teaching more students terminal commands. Maybe using web API calls with cURL. Or get and some eviloverlord.com quotes?
