I have recently been trying a port of HTTPie in Rust, xh [0] (which is needlessly hard to find in a websearch). I am a Python guy, but love having single executable tools.

Happy to hear about xh, thanks for mentioning it. I recently ran into a problem where HTTPie didn't support HTTP/2, so I had to fall back to curl. The ticket for HTTP/2 in HTTPie is still open https://github.com/httpie/httpie/issues/692

Happy to see that xh supports HTTP/2 out of the box.

xh is great, just like HTTPie but incredibly fast.

I alias it to http so it's memorable and the commands make more sense though.
