I follow the same approach. Emacs, Verb[0] and org-mode. An alternative to Verb would be restclient.el[1] but I like Verb more because it works as an extension to org-mode which is great for documentation.

I have been using restclient-mode for years and really like it, but had never heard of verb -- thanks for the link!

verb looks like a game changer for this neanderthal that lives in org mode but copy/pastes curl instructions to the terminal.

Hope it's useful! You can still export your requests to curl, when you want.
