What is Postman

Postman is an all-in-one platform for working with APIs throughout their entire lifecycle. It provides tools to send API requests, view responses, write tests, create documentation, and monitor performance. Unlike basic HTTP clients, Postman offers a complete environment where teams can organize their work into collections, share them with teammates, and automate testing.

The platform includes an easy-to-use interface where you can build requests without writing code, though it also supports advanced scripting when needed. Postman works as a desktop app, web app, or through command-line tools for automation. It integrates with popular development tools and supports team collaboration through workspaces, making it ideal for both individual developers and large organizations building complex API systems.
