The PostMan web site has the answers to all your questions except the last one. Please read the basics there, Thanks.
Regarding curl, someone who uses curl can help you. Frankly, I stopped using curl for testing or web APIs or downloading web data a decade ago.
I occasionally use curl and wget to download a file.
As a cybersecurity person, I note (as a side note) that a lot of malware uses curl when the hacker attempts to exploit a vulnerability on a web site and download malware to the file system.
Cheers,

curl-config
curl-config(1) curl-config manual curl-config(1)
NAME
curl-config - Get information about a libcurl installation
SYNOPSIS
curl-config [options]
DESCRIPTION
curl-config displays information about a previous curl and libcurl installation.
OPTIONS
--cc Displays the compiler used to build libcurl.
--cflags
Set of compiler options (CFLAGS) to use when compiling files that use libcurl. Currently that is only thw include path to the curl
include files.
--feature
Lists what particular main features the installed libcurl was built with. At the time of writing, this list may include SSL, KRB4 or
IPv6. Do not assume any particular order. The keywords will be separated by newlines. There may be none, one or several keywords in
the list.
--help Displays the available options.
--libs Shows the complete set of libs and other linker options you will need in order to link your application with libcurl.
--prefix
This is the prefix used when libcurl was installed. Libcurl is then installed in $prefix/lib and its header files are installed in
$prefix/include and so on. The prefix is set with "configure --prefix".
--version
Outputs version information about the installed libcurl.
--vernum
Outputs version information about the installed libcurl, in numerical mode. This outputs the version number, in hexadecimal, with 8
bits for each part; major, minor, patch. So that libcurl 7.7.4 would appear as 070704 and libcurl 12.13.14 would appear as 0c0d0e...
EXAMPLES
What linker options do I need when I link with libcurl?
$ curl-config --libs
What compiler options do I need when I compile using libcurl functions?
$ curl-config --cflags
How do I know if libcurl was built with SSL support?
$ curl-config --feature | grep SSL
What's the installed libcurl version?
$ curl-config --version
How do I build a single file with a one-line command?
$ `curl-config --cc --cflags --libs` -o example example.c
