__mitmproxy__ is an interactive, SSL-capable man-in-the-middle proxy for HTTP
with a console interface.

__mitmdump__ is the command-line version of mitmproxy. Think tcpdump for HTTP.

__libmproxy__ is the library that mitmproxy and mitmdump are built on.

Complete documentation and a set of practical tutorials is included in the

The following components are needed if you plan to hack on mitmproxy:

* The test suite uses the [nose](http://readthedocs.org/docs/nose/en/latest/) unit testing
  framework and requires [human_curl](https://github.com/Lispython/human_curl),
  [pathod](http://pathod.org) and [flask](http://flask.pocoo.org/).
* Rendering the documentation requires [countershape](http://github.com/cortesi/countershape).
