Postman is a free tool that allows developers to test, build, and document APIs by sending HTTP requests to a server and viewing the responses.

You use it to interact with APIs like the one you created (/notes) without needing a frontend UI or browser forms.


✅ 1. Test API Endpoints Easily

You can send different kinds of HTTP requests like:

Request Type Purpose
GET Fetch data
POST Create new data
PATCH Update part of data
DELETE Remove data

Instead of using forms or writing code every time, Postman lets you just click and test.


✅ 2. Send Custom Request Data

You can easily:

This makes testing very flexible and powerful.


✅ 3. See Clear Responses
