Run locally like Postman?

[boardtc]

is there any way to run Hopscotch locally like Postman, so with a URL that's only valid locally \ within a VPN?

Refer our Local development environment guidelines to have a complete local Hoppscotch instance.

Thanks!
Step 1 has a bug , it’s clone this repo links to:
https://help.github.com/en/articles/cloning-a-repository
What's the proper repo?

[liyasthomas]

The "repo" refers to the current repository that you're in: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch

[boardtc]

Oh, ok, thanks.
Step 1: The link should be fixed to point to that or removed
Step 2: The next step assumes one has npm installed. I recommend adding a link to nodejs.rg/en/download to install it. After that I was able to do a "c:\Program Files\nodejs\npn" install -g pnpm
Step 3: pnpm install was recognised after a reboot

It ran then! I'm wondering what steps I will need to do to reset up every time.

I copied in all the settings from Postman and did a send and I get the error: unable to reach API endpoint....it says to select a different interceptor, the options are Proxy and browser extension (not reported). - neither help. btw, I am using Edge.
Any advice is appreciated!

I was wondering what is your use cases are?

Please let me know if you simply want to "run a locally hosted endpoint in Hoppscotch" or "run Hoppscotch locally"?

[boardtc]

Well, it's the former! I am hoping that can be done by running locally?

Great, this allowed me to run from the browser without downloading code. If you convert the comment to an answer, I can mark as answer!

@mircboe make sure your .env files are proper before you are running pnpm install.
