Hi there,

Your desire to contribute is much appreciated.

Postman is not an open-source product in itself. There are many components that are open source, but how they fit together is something that is not well documented.

AFAIK, the UI is not part of the open-source components.

All open source repositories are here:

> **[Postman Inc.](https://github.com/postmanlabs)**
>
> An API platform for building and using APIs. Postman Inc. has 169 repositories available. Follow their code on GitHub.
