Does this support curl commands from Chrome/Firefox DevTools?

Yes. Browser DevTools' 'Copy as cURL' produces curl commands with -H headers, --compressed flags, and cookies. The tool handles these common patterns. Unrecognized flags are added as comments in the generated code so you can handle them manually.

Why 5 languages instead of just one?

Many developers work across multiple languages — a backend in Go, a script in Python, an Android app in Java, a web frontend in Node.js. By showing all 5 simultaneously, you can compare how each language handles HTTP requests, learn new languages by example, and copy code for any project without re-entering the curl command.

Supported curl Flags

Flag	Example	Generated In

Why Developers Convert curl to Code

API exploration → production code. Developers test APIs with curl because it's fast, universal, and requires no setup. But when it's time to integrate that API into an application, the curl command needs to become Python, Go, Java, PHP, or JavaScript. Manually translating headers, JSON bodies, auth tokens, and SSL options from curl syntax to each language's HTTP library is tedious and error-prone — one misplaced quote or missing header and the request fails silently.

Browser DevTools → code. Chrome and Firefox DevTools let you right-click any network request and "Copy as cURL." This captures the exact headers, cookies, and body that your browser sent — but it's a curl command, not usable code. This tool bridges that gap: paste the DevTools curl, get working code in your language of choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert curl to Python requests?

Paste your curl command and switch to the Python tab. The tool generates clean requests library code — handling URL, method, headers, JSON/form data, auth, and SSL settings. Works with curl from browser DevTools (Copy as cURL).

How do I convert curl to Go or Java?

Go tab: net/http with http.NewRequest, header setup, and http.Client. Java tab: java.net.http.HttpClient (Java 11+) with HttpRequest builder. Both include proper error handling and SSL configuration.

Does this support curl from Chrome DevTools?

Yes. DevTools "Copy as cURL" produces commands with -H headers, --compressed, and cookies — all handled. Unrecognized flags generate comments so nothing is silently dropped.

What curl flags are supported?

-X (method), -H (headers), -d (body with JSON/form detection), -u (basic auth), -k (skip TLS), -L (follow redirects), -b (cookies), -A (user-agent), -F (multipart form), --connect-timeout, --max-time. See the reference table above for details per language.

Why generate 5 languages from one curl command?

Teams often work across languages — a Go backend, Python scripts, Java Android app, Node.js frontend. By generating all 5 at once, you can copy code for any project without re-entering the curl command, and compare HTTP client patterns across languages.
