Frequently Asked Questions
Which Python library is used?
The requests library — the de facto standard for HTTP in Python. It needs to be installed separately with pip install requests.
Which curl flags are supported?
-X/--request, -H/--header, -d/--data (and --data-raw/--data-binary/--data-urlencode), -u/--user, -A/--user-agent, -b/--cookie, --url, and a bare URL. Other flags are ignored rather than causing an error.
Is my command uploaded to a server?
No. Parsing and code generation both happen entirely in your browser.
Does this run the request?
No. It only generates the Python code — you run it yourself.
