Looks useful. I really dislike the "Download Postman and then you will have documentation" approach. Documentation lives on the web, and there are better alternatives to Postman anyway.
I'm so excited to finally be able to share this with you!<p>Pantry is a free cloud storage service that I've been building for the past few weeks. You can use the API to store & retrieve data for you and your users online for free.<p>Looking forward to seeing what you all think of it, and please feel free to post suggestions or AMA.<p>Thanks!
I've done something similar for some of my students to test restful apis at <a href="http://mockrest.com" rel="nofollow">http://mockrest.com</a>.<p>It is quite similar to this although you just write your own data on a textarea, and get/post/put/delete to modify it.. Then you can copy-paste the result json from the backend to a text file or something like that..<p>It dynamically finds your objects (even nested ones) and you can CRUD them..
Very cool! I was looking for something like this about a month ago when I was building an example web application for firmware developers. Firmware engineers aren't expected to know anything about databases and usually don't, so I just wanted some dumb JSON store in the cloud that didn't need any provisioning.<p>In the end, I went with Heroku and it's included PostgreSQL offering and stomached the complexity, but along the way I found <a href="https://jsonbox.io/" rel="nofollow">https://jsonbox.io/</a>, which I thought was neat and seems very similar.
I love the graphics and web design! It looks like a simple service, and more alternatives in the space are welcome!<p>Full-disclosure, I also develop a "competing" (if you can call it that) service: <a href="https://kvdb.io" rel="nofollow">https://kvdb.io</a> - my landing page isn't as nice. Our buckets offer some atomic operations on keys and Lua-based scripting (you can spit out arbitrary text or HTML and handle basic GET/POST requests with parameter parsing), which might be useful for prototyping.<p>You should figure out how to sustain this kind of service on $FREE. In my experience, I've found a lot of people sign up but don't use it for anything serious. One of my first customers signed up and demanded a refund immediately after he discovered "oh, your simple key-value store doesn't support SQL queries?"<p>Good luck!
I’m currently building something very similar but with a usage based payment system (not implemented yet). <a href="https://quickstash.io" rel="nofollow">https://quickstash.io</a>
A mozilla alternative is Kinto<p>* Used e.g. for profiles sync<p>* Deploys to heroku - 1 click<p><a href="https://www.kinto-storage.org/" rel="nofollow">https://www.kinto-storage.org/</a>
