Apicraft is a zero-dependency CLI tool built for the 100lines.dev hackathon that serves as a unified platform for the complete API development lifecycle.

It combines the functionality of tools like Postman, curl, and mock servers into a single terminal-based interface, enabling developers to test APIs, save and replay requests, manage environments, generate code snippets, track request history, and spin up instant mock servers—all while maintaining exactly 300 lines of JavaScript code.
