Not only is its open source

As a developer another piece of software you may want to replace is Postman, your http client. An awesome open source alternative is Hoppscotch, which is built with Vue.js and Typescript entirely as a progressive web app. but you can go use it in the browser right now at hoppscotch.io and then install it as a PWA on your desktop. It runs in a native window and allows you to interact with your file system.
Now, if you've ever coded in Python, then tried Javascript later, you might be shocked at how difficult it is to work with multi-dimensional arrays. In python we have libraries like Pandas that can do all kinds of useful stuff to an array or data frame. Not many people realize that there's a library called Danfo.js that is inspired by Pandas and can do many of the things you know and like read a .csv file and process the data within it before it gets sent to a machine learning library like Tensorflow.
That's pretty useful but the hardest usa b2b leads thing in front-end web development is making your website look good. There’re a million different tools out there that can help you do that but one I’ve been really loving recently for React is Mantine. Not only does it have a bunch of well-crafted UI components but it also has a bunch of built-in hooks that handle many of the annoying things that you'll come across when building a web app. Like debouncing an input or paginating a collection of items. On top of that it has optional packages for a notification system, rich text editor and a drop zone for file uploads.
The problem with all the libraries that we've looked at so far is that they require you to know how to write some code. If you have an idea for a full stack application but want to skip the whole learn to code part, an open source tool to check out is Amplication. It's a tool that can automatically generate both your frontend and backend code based on relationships to data models in a database that you can manage visually. The backend is built with other open source tools like node Next.js and Prisma while the front-end is based on React. Even if you don’t know how to code this is a tool that can speed up your workflow.
