Onyx for the vSphere Web Client
The original Project Onyx (also here) was a VMware Fling which intercepted calls between the C# vSphere client and vCenter and could translate things you did in the GUI client to code in your choice of languages; SOAP, C#, PowerCLI, and JavaScript. This was really useful if say a thing you needed to do was not yet covered by a PowerCLI cmdlet, or you wanted to try and make it faster by using Get-View, or you didn’t know how to code it in JavaScript for vRO.
