Best REST client for Node and VS.CODE
This is my liked client to debugging Rest API - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=humao.rest-client, just Send request and that's it.
But, in some case, when API return byte stream, this client frozen, in that case I use http://restclient.net/
Of course, there are a lot of other clients, for example https://www.postman.com/ and https://www.soapui.org/, but this is separate tools with a lot of additional functionality, like sharing your test-value test collections between developers. If you need really lightweight and useful tools embedded in browser and VS Code - you can tools I described above.
Another way is you want to debug whole application - frontend + backend. In this case you can use Lite-server https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ritwickdey.LiveServer, or Open on Browser server https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=techer.open-in-browser.
oR of course, main server for development - WebPack How to start WebDevelopment on Typescript with Lite-server and Webpack server. But, of course, Webpack is most hard to configured server (if you want to use is separately), but in Angular or Nativescript this is embedded server and launch automatically.
