    The use of commas to separate key-value pairs here is perplexing to say the least, why have them at all? Does it means I now need to escape them if my value has a comma at the end?

    From the docs:

      restish POST api.rest.sh \
        platform.name: HTTPie, \
        platform.about.mission: Make  APIs simple and intuitive, \
        platform.about.homepage: httpie.io, \
        platform.about.stars: 54000, \
        platform.apps: [Terminal, Desktop, Web, Mobile]

      I appreciate that they have the following page which helps answer the very first question i had upon reading the intro, namely how this compares to a couple of existing tools (like curl, etc.): https://rest.sh/#/comparison

        The site seems down (just blank white page).

            So it looks like pretty much yes. I think the only real advantage I saw was the auth stuff. I guess this'll be a good tool in the toolbelt for when that time comes
