I wanted a simple API client inside VS Code without requiring an account, cloud sync, or a separate application. My motivation started when Thunder Client moved from free to paid plan, which made me look for a lightweight alternative. So, I build a much better alternative which will have features of both Thunderclient and Postman but not just that. I have added lots more than that and it sizes on about 250KB.
So I built Telegraph REST API Client — a free, open-source, fully offline REST and GraphQL client for VS Code.
It supports collections, environments, authentication, request history, SSE/NDJSON streaming, raw HTTP request inspection, and importing from Postman, OpenAPI, cURL, and more.

I'd love to hear what other developers think and what features you'd like to see.
I am not sure about this, but one thing I can confirm that - In just one day I got 200 downloads on OpenVSX (I cant paste link here but you can search "Telegraph REST API Client" by riturajshakti in openvsx site)
