Summary

Insomnia Designer and Insomnia Core have been merged into a single application now simply called Insomnia, following user feedback and internal discussions. This integration means that Insomnia Designer will no longer receive updates, and users must migrate to the new Insomnia, which includes features like a Dashboard for managing request collections, Git Sync, and Unit Testing capabilities. Insomnia Core users will automatically receive updates through the auto-update channel, while Insomnia Designer users will be prompted to migrate their data and settings upon downloading the latest version. The merge is part of a broader strategy to make design functionality a core aspect of Insomnia, promising future enhancements such as request collection grouping, design document management, and improved plugin APIs. This release emphasizes the ongoing commitment to enhancing design capabilities and acknowledges the contributions of those who worked on it.
