I'm currently using Bruno, which uses its own format "Bru Lang" for storing HTTP requests as plain text[1]. The VS Code extension is great but I'd much prefer the standard backed by 30k+ stars was extended instead of a new format to introduce fragmentation in this space.

Yeah, I agree. Bruno is a great tool, but it's missing one key component that I needed (maybe it's just me) – it can't run multiple requests in a chain. Also, constructions like: get { url: .... } feel too verbose to me, I wanted something clearer, like: get /users ;) But in general, thank you guys for your interest, my goal is to gain that 30k+ starts )))
