Version 4.8.0
Released Nov 17, 2021 - 2.15 MBWorks with firefox 63.0 and laterThe webRequest and webRequestBlocking permissions are not optional. RESTer requests them automatically the first time a request is sent. Neither Firefox, nor Chrome currently show a permission prompt for that. Making those permissions optional allows RESTer to work in environments where those permissins are blocked (e.g. by Chrome Enterprise Policy).Source code released under MIT License

Version 4.6.0
Released Jun 23, 2021 - 2.13 MBWorks with firefox 63.0 and later, android 63.0 to 68.*JSON pretty printing/beautifying no longer modifies certain values in the JSON, e.g. big numbers.
Before JSON was pretty printed using `JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(str), null, 4)`. This is easy and fast. But it normalizes values, e.g. a value like `0.0` changes to `0`. Since numbers are represented as `Number` after being parsed, very big numbers loose precision, e.g. `55871516310040211` turns into `55871516310040210`.
The new formatting is a bit slower but does not modify any except whitespace.
I think this is worth the performance cost. RESTer should not modify the response just because it pretty prints it. This could be very confusing.Source code released under MIT License
