    About Hoppscotch

    Hoppscotch is a lightweight, open-source API development platform that serves as a collaborative ecosystem for developers to create, test, and manage APIs. It provides a fast, web-based interface for sending HTTP requests, managing environments, and organizing collections. The platform supports a wide array of protocols beyond standard REST, including WebSockets and Server-Sent Events, making it suitable for modern real-time application development. The service is offered in three primary tiers: a cloud-hosted SaaS version, a Community Edition for self-hosting, and an Enterprise Edition that includes advanced features such as distributed tracing and contextual logging. By offering an open-source core, Hoppscotch allows for high transparency and prevents vendor lock-in, enabling organizations to maintain full control over their API testing infrastructure through on-premises deployment.
