For the styles, I'll be using TailwindCSS. To simulate API requests Mirage JS will be used, which is a very easy to use and useful API mocking library. To call this API, we're going to use Fetch.

during development we use mirage JS to spin up an in-browser mock server which returns mock data for any API endpoints not currently implemented by the real backend. during integration testing we configure this server to return mock data for all API endpoints in the system, giving us a fixed environment against which our tests can run. test suites can be run in parallel since each time a playwright page is opened a new copy of the webapp, and thus a new copy of the mock server, is launched. these integration tests run whenever a frontend PR is opened or updated.

Mirage JS is specifically built for this purpose as well. It‘s a frontend JavaScript library meant for mocking backend APIs. https://miragejs.com/

The best case scenario you would be using something like MirageJS, MSW, or even JSON Server, but mocking fetch is always an option.

Mirage JS is pretty useful and allows you to create complex testing scenarios with its embedded db. Useful when you have relationships between your models.

Mirage JS: Mirage JS is an API mocking library that lets you build, test, and share a complete working JavaScript application without having to rely on any backend services.

Mockoon - Used as a logging server instead of using print in the console.

Hopefully, 2024 is the year I can stop freelancing and live the dream! Work on an open-source project I love while not feeling guilty about not bringing enough money home :D

The project I'm working on is https://mockoon.com

Mockoon- Mockoon is the easiest and quickest way to design and run mock REST APIs.

Startup Name / URL: Mockoon (https://mockoon.com)

If you are looking for something with a GUI, I made https://mockoon.com It's open source, supports Faker.js and has a CLI to run the mocks in your CI env (or elsewhere).

I maintain an open-source app built with Electron. It serves tens of thousands of users every months and nobody complained in 5 years that it is being built with Electron. Not saying that Electron is perfect, and that it couldn't be a bit more performant, but as a solo maintainer (and entrepreneur) it helps me ship something that save people time. The burden of maintaining an application is already huge. Having to juggle with multiple environments would be a hassle and I definitely wouldn't do it.

That being said, if a "drop-in" alternative would be available I would probably try to switch at one point. But the alternative would have to be on par with the ecosystem (including packaging, binaries signing, etc.), the community, the ease of use... I don't think there is such a thing yet.

The app, if you are interested: https://mockoon.com

Company: https://mockoon.com

I recommend Mockoon https://mockoon.com/ it’s simple like Postman without create mock api server with code

This may not be what you're looking for, but have you seen Mockoon?
