RequestCatcher

How it works

• Uses http4k as a server
• Uses Vue.js to augment the frontend
• Uses Websockets to broadcast requests received
• Uses mini.css as a lightweight framework
• Renders the received requests on the left in reverse order
• Can play/pause requests
• Can clear existing requests
• Can filter requests by payload
