Ask HN: Native Development Proxy for Mac
When developing API-Heavy apps I am using a mix of Charles proxy and Burp Suite to listen on and manipulate HTTP calls. Both do the job very well and are really powerful in my opinion. While not missing anything feature-wise both are Java-Based and seem to negatively affect my System stability, are rather slow and quite resource hogs even on my reasonably powerful machine. I tried to find some native implementation that would let me listen on HTTP from e.g the Browser, Simulator and Devices, let me throttle the connection and manipulate requests / responses but did not have any success. Is anyone here aware of an app that roughly does what I outlined while being not Java based? Price is not so much an issue.
I'm not sure how well this will suit your needs, but there is an alpha of Fiddler for Mac that might work. As far as I know it's run through Mono which isn't fully native so it might not be what you're looking for.
Looking for the same thing. Anyone knows of a non-java tool?
Is mitmproxy something that would work for you?
