Unetus is an open-source, cross-platform API client for GraphQL, REST, WebSockets, Server-sent events and gRPC.
Unetus is a fork of the Insomnia project.
TLDR: You probably want to use bruno instead of this project!
I created this fork because I am not yet ready to change to a different tool and loose all my saved configurations.
This is a hobby project!
My plan is to keep this fork low maintenance. That means I will mainly keep electron and other dependencies up-to-date and fix smaller bugs if I can. I will not spend time extending or refactoring the code base. I am pretty happy with the existing features.
Here's the deal:
- I will accept bug reports, but I can't promise a timely response.
- I will accept pull-requests to fix bugs, but I can't promise a timely response.
- I will most probably not accept feature requests.
- I will not accept pull-requests that do large refactorings.
If that works for you: Welcome! 👋

sudo apt-get install libfontconfig-devFedora
# Install libcurl for node-libcurl
sudo dnf install libcurl-develAlso on Linux, if Electron is failing during the install process, run the following
# Clear Electron install conflicts
rm -rf ~/.cache/electronIf you are on Windows and have problems, you may need to install Windows Build Tools
Editor Requirements
You can use any editor you'd like, but make sure to have support/plugins for the following tools:
