## About

Bruno is a desktop API client. Collections are stored as plain text files in your project, so requests are versioned and reviewed alongside the code they exercise.

There is no account and no cloud sync, which is the point.

## How the score works

The percentage is the raw share of swipes that went right. Rankings weigh that share against the number of swipes (a prior of 25 swipes at 50%), so a high score from a handful of swipes ranks below a slightly lower score from many. Anyone can swipe without an account; each browser or account swipes a product once.
