It offers real runtimes with package imports, stateful workflows for sharing variables and chaining requests, and orchestration capabilities for multi-step flows and token rotations. ## Content Hey Python folks, I wanted to share something I think a lot of you might find useful: Pre & Post Request Scripts in most API tools only focus on JS. Voiden does this differently:  In Voiden, Pre & Post Request Scripts are a full platform: - Python (first-class): use the language you already know and trust - Real runtimes & package imports: run actual code, import libraries, and reuse existing logic - Stateful workflows: share variables, store data, and chain requests dynamically - Orchestration-ready: automate multi-step flows, token rotations, and dependent API calls Not helper scripts. Real programmable infrastructure inside your API client.
