Overview
RequestsInspector is a Flutter package designed for debugging HTTP and GraphQL requests during development. It logs all outgoing API calls and provides real-time access to request/response data by shaking the device, displaying a dedicated inspector widget. Ideal for developers who need quick visibility into network activity without modifying code. The package supports both Android and iOS platforms and integrates seamlessly with existing HTTP clients like dio or http. Its lightweight design ensures minimal performance impact.
