Add support for teams

[Aditya94A]

Postman teams for postwoman.

More details in #507 (which is sort of a prequel for this issue)

Noted. Currently we have support for individual account and sync. Teams is next priority 🚀

Hi :)
I really love hoppscotch, the approach is modern and agile.
But hoppscotch is a different product than postman and it should stay different.
With postman, they are trying to make money and their team feature is the best way to do it.
They designed it with this goal in mind.

But I don't think it's the best opportunity for hoppscotch...
I found many references to draw.io in other comments and for me, that is the best path for hoppscotch : sync files with a local/cloud folder.
Let the storage provider handle the team feature (local git repository, shared folder on google drive...).

I read the hoppscotch code, I understand that the project is growing at a point that it's become harder and slower to add features. I'm afraid to see it becoming too complex for features that does not rely to request management. I mean, handle teams is an open door to : ACL, file conflict management and it make hoppscotch attached to a backend.

Please keep this project as we love it : simple and not attached to a specific platform (github or firebase).

That was the humble opinion of a regular hoppscotch user (and probably a futur contributor :D)

Hi @dalexanco,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We have already thought about many of the points you brought forward.

We are already almost done with Teams and we are introducing our own backend architecture to support it.

We have a couple of reasons for choosing a self-hosted backend architecture over the other options.

We wanted to keep the Teams features easy to use and adopt. As per our research and experimentations we found out that the experience (using files) seemed a bit lacking. We want to bring in the ability to sync up changes and work as frictionless as possible. With the self hosted backend we are able to introduce an effortless experience with more features like access control and permissions and this also allows us to introduce more fine-grained controls later on.

But at the same time, we are looking into secondary solutions as well to provide better experience and still provide a file based implementation. With the File System API and similar web stuff on the horizon and gaining support we will eventually be able to bring it forth and utilize.

As of now though, we are working on a overhauling of the state system to allow for implementing a proper Workspace feature which allows you to bring in and export your entire Hoppscotch configuration as a file which can load and switch to from. There is also significant work going on to try implementing a native app.

Thank you for using (and loving!) Hoppscotch. We are trying our best to support independent features but at the same time we want to uphold our philosophy of being an easy to use and quick platform that people can leverage to test, build and implement APIs on.

We are looking forward to seeing your awesome contributions!

I would like to use this opportunity to thank, @oshhh @IshaGupta18, @rohanrajpal and @raghav0307 for their amazing work on helping make Teams a reality! They worked on the implementation of Teams in the Hoppscotch web app.

Thank you so much guys! 🥰

Have been eagerly waiting for this feature for a while and great work for delivering. Any news on how beta has went and when this will be moved into production?

[liyasthomas]

@davew94 we're working on delivering the best experience for our users. Please join the beta program and give us your feedbacks.

You can expect the Teams feature release in couple of weeks.

So, as I can read, there will not be Teams in self-hosted applications?

It's understable that everybody wants to make money from their work, but as a lover of postwoman/hoppscotch it's a bit sad. Will be a firebase backend merge request welcomed?

Thanks for your great job.

[liyasthomas]

@OnekO there'll be Teams support in self-hosted instances.

Hi. Just wondering if this has changed? It’s been almost 12 months since the closed beta ended and it’s still not available for self-hosted instances
