Running the Endpoint Bin

The Endpoint Bin will be running at http://localhost:${PORT}. You can access the web interface and start creating bins.

Usage

1. Open your web browser and go to http://localhost:${PORT}.
2. Create a new bin to generate a unique URL.
3. Send HTTP requests to the generated URL.
4. View and inspect the captured requests on the web interface.
