### What we like

Define arbitrary API routes and response handlers from a CLI or config file. Extend any HTTP service with new routes. Handlers can be shell scripts. Supports conditional responses and middleware. Define test assertions with integration into Go for programmatically adjusting tests.

### Tradeoffs

Only provides builds for macOS and Linux even though it’s written in Go and could offer more.
