Sandman v0.1 - First macOS Release

Hey everyone! I’m excited to share that Sandman v0.1 is now available for macOS!

I just published the very first public release of Sandman on GitHub. This initial release brings executable API documentation to macOS, combining the simplicity of Markdown with the power of Lua scripting.

  • HTTP Client & Server - Make HTTP requests and spin up mock servers
  • Executable Notebooks - Write and run Lua code blocks in Markdown files
  • Request Inspection - View all HTTP requests and responses in real-time

Still a long road ahead

Sandman is currently far from finished. I have soo many ideas, but for now you can start using it for very basic scenarios. While it’s already functional and useful for real work, you may encounter bugs or rough edges. Your feedback is invaluable in helping me improve it!
