Native, not a web app in a costume
Tauri v2 with the operating system's own webview, and Rust with reqwest doing the networking on a real thread. No bundled browser engine to keep alive.

ReqTone
Native API client — REST · GraphQL · SSE
A desktop API client for people who would rather not run a browser inside a browser. Rust and Tauri v2, the system webview, and every collection, variable and credential in one local SQLite file that belongs to you.
What it is
One file you own
Collections, history, environments and credentials all live in a single db.sqlite. Copy it, diff it, back it up, open it with any SQLite tool. No account, no sign-in, nothing in anyone else's cloud.
Streaming is the default path
Every request travels the same streaming code, so a response renders as it is written. Server-Sent Events arrive as inspectable frames — message, error, done — with a live elapsed timer.
Monaco, split for API work
The editor from VS Code, in two panes: GraphQL query beside its JSON variables, with validation as you type, plus form and multipart body editors.
Three scopes, one obvious winner
Variables resolve from request, to project, to global — narrowest wins, and you can see which row won. Bearer, API key, Basic and OAuth2 profiles are declared once at the project and inherit down the tree. Existing work comes in from Postman v2.1, OpenAPI 3.0 or a pasted cURL command.
Where it stands
Honest about the stage it is at.
ReqTone is at v0.1.0 and has not been released. The application builds, but code signing is the blocker standing between it and a download link — and S7 does not ship unsigned binaries to people who trust it.
