📢 Beta 5 of 2025.9 is live 📢 Yaak will now use the installed `git` binary for commit/fetch/push/pull, in order to mirror the behaviors you're used to. You can now also manage remotes and provide credentials directly in Yaak 🙌🏼
Cloudflare went down today, taking Yaak’s servers with it. The Yaak desktop app is fully local, however, so it kept working as it should 💪🏼

WTF. 🤯 Postman's server's are down and you can't even use desktop app with your local APIs! This is exactly why I made yaak.app. It works offline, is open source, has no telemetry, no VC funding, and even syncs with Git! Give it a try and let me know what you think ✨
Directory Sync is architected in such a way that remote sync (like S3) might be doable. Any interest in this?
