Allow to use Kreya as a one-click simple REST client
Hello,
As developers, we frequently need to perform GET or POST request to random endpoints, to quickly retrieve something or test a REST feature somewhere for example.
Currently Kreya is not really suited for these "one shot" needs, because once it's opened, you need to create a project : choose a path, a subpath, a project name, select between REST / gRPC / Websocket, provide Swagger, provide root endpoint........ That's a lot of heaviness for a such usage.
It would be nice to be able to just open Kreya, click on "Create REST call", let it create a temporary project (for example by default in user's Temp folder), and just paste your endpoint address, and your POST content in the usual Request panel.
Of course there's numerous add-ons for Firefox or Chrome to quickly execute REST requests in very few clicks, but they usually lack of lot of the nice features of Kreya or other professional tools and we rarely know which add on is "safe" to use and install.
I take the example of REST calls because it's the most obvious to illustrate what I mean, I hope you understand the idea :).
Thank you !
Good idea! We already made some improvements in this area and more will come.
Currently, the fastest way is to create a new project (this takes pretty long to fill all values), skip the project setup wizard and then create a new REST request. So creating a "temporary project" with one click should speed things up
