About Proxyman
Proxyman sits between your apps and the network as a man-in-the-middle proxy, so you can capture and decrypt HTTP and HTTPS traffic, view it by app or domain and inspect bodies with syntax highlighting. It handles WebSocket, HTTP/2 and GraphQL traffic.
Breakpoints, Map Local, request composing, diffing and JavaScript scripting let you change or mock responses while testing. The macOS app is native; builds for Windows and Linux are also offered. It suits developers debugging web and mobile apps as an alternative to Charles or Fiddler.
