Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Summary

It would be great if Hoppscotch had a console feature like Postman. Its a very useful feature that streamlines debugging issues with requests, and also writing the pre/post request scripts as well.

Why should this be worked on?

One problem we run into frequently is sometimes requests don't work as expected, and to debug it we want to confirm that the request had the right headers and data. While we can go to the Chrome network tab, its a lot of clicks to find the right request, and then look through the contents. It would be much easier if there was a dedicated console in the UI that showed the outgoing/incoming requests/responses

Hoppscotch already has the console.log() feature. You can write your console log statements in pre-request or post-request scripts and send the request to execute them. The console logs will be displayed on a separate tab next to the Tests tab in the Response panel.

Sure but as I mentioned, this isn't just for console logs. We would like the ability to see the outgoing request so that we can confirm the variable values, and any auto-generated values were populated correctly.

Also the console logs only show up when the "Experimental Scripting Sandbox" is enabled. We can't ask our users to use an experimental feature just for the console logs.
