mitmweb is a command-line tool that stands for Man-in-the-Middle Web. It is a part of the MITMProxy project, which is a versatile HTTP/HTTPS proxy that allows intercepting, inspecting, and modifying web traffic in real-time.
When you run the command "mitmweb" in the command-line interface, it starts the mitmweb server. This server provides a web-based interface that allows you to monitor and interact with the HTTP/HTTPS traffic passing through the proxy.
By accessing the mitmweb server through a web browser, you can see a dashboard that displays information about the intercepted requests and responses, including the URL, headers, and content. It also allows you to inspect and modify the traffic in various ways, such as modifying requests or responses, setting breakpoints, and injecting scripts.
Overall, mitmweb provides a convenient way to monitor and manipulate web traffic for testing, debugging, security analysis, or other purposes.
