mockr-cli
Mock a REST API with one JSON file
What it does
mockr lets you create a fake REST API by just writing a JSON file. no server configuration required, no dependencies to configure. one command and you are done. useful if your backend is not yet ready but you still want to work on the frontend. it supports route params, custom status codes, response delays, random responses, and watch mode. use it by running `npx mockr-cli start` or generate a starter config with `mockr-cli init`.
