> Related question, What would you use a Postman Chrome Extension... for?

Postman started off as a Chrome Extension (ran in a chrome tab), and then became a Chrome App. The standalone apps for desktops came later. A lot of people use the chrome extension because it's convenient.

Source: I worked at Postman until about a year ago.

Native Postman is garbage in that it doesn't even support authenticated corp proxies.
I think I knew that once, but only started playing with Postman after it was a standalone application.
