Collaborative API workshops for student study groups to practice together.
University dev students face steep learning curves and limited free requests in API testing tools, hindering effective practice of REST and GraphQL APIs.
RestForge lets students create shared API testing rooms for group practice on REST and GraphQL. Unlimited sessions with real-time collaboration, mock data, and session replays solve solo practice limitations. Integrated chat and role assignments make it perfect for assignments and study sessions.
