I'm excited to announce the first public alpha release of Nimbus!

This release represents the culmination of extensive development and architectural refinement to create a developer-focused API testing tool that truly understands your Laravel application.

What is Nimbus?

Nimbus automatically analyzes your Laravel routes and validation rules to build interactive request schemas and a native testing interface. It eliminates the friction of manual API client configuration by discovering your endpoints and understanding their validation requirements.

Think of it as Postman/Insomnia, but it lives inside your Laravel app and automatically knows about your routes.

Key Features

• Automatic route and schema discovery from Laravel routes and validation rules.
• Built-in, polished interface for testing API endpoints in your browser.
• Response viewer with JSON formatting and syntax highlighting.
• Cookie inspection with automatic Laravel cookie decryption.
• Special authentication modes:
  • Make requests as the currently logged-in user.
  • Impersonate other users by ID.
  • Bearer token and Basic Auth support.
• Inline value generators for realistic test data (UUIDs, emails, names, dates, etc.).
• Global headers automatically applied to every request.
• One-click payload population with realistic test data.
• Export requests as cURL commands.

Documentation

Comprehensive documentation is included in this release:

• User Guide - Complete guide on using Nimbus.
• Contributor Guide - For developers willing to contribute.
