hal-explorer
May 16, 2026 · View on GitHub
An interactive terminal browser for HAL+JSON REST APIs, built on
the zeichenwerk TUI
framework. Send HTTP requests, follow _links, and inspect headers,
properties, and embedded resources side-by-side.
Install
go install github.com/tekugo/hal-explorer@latest
Run
hal-explorer
Enter a URL, pick a method (GET/POST/PUT/DELETE), optionally edit the
body, and execute. The response pane parses HAL+JSON (_links,
_embedded) and lets you navigate to linked resources directly.
Status
Early — extracted from cmd/hal-explorer in the zeichenwerk monorepo
as a standalone tool. API and shape may change without notice.
License
