How to Automatically Consume RESTful APIs in Your Frontend
Since the OpenAPI can effectively describe our resources, we can reuse it to generate a dummy server that can be later used for development and testing purposes without bootstrapping any actual services. There some tools available that can help us with this task, such as Prism, OpenAPI Mock, OpenAPI Backend and the MSW library we have already seen.

Show HN: Generate JSON mock data for testing/initial app development
I use https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism with x-faker properties in my OpenAPI specs to mock APIs with dynamic content.

Please recommend a good API Mocking tool
Haven't tried it yet, but discovered https://microcks.io/ yesterday. Otherwise https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism is pretty good

Prism: a useful developer tool for OpenAPI specs
Prism does more than mocking; You can also use it to inspect any discrepancies between your API implementation and the API spec. You can find out more on their GitHub page:https://github.com/stoplightio/prism

How do people deal with mocking CRUD operations for the purposes of testing?
use a mock API server that can read openapi spec (e.g. Prism)

install db locally or go with docker image for development?
What about skipping the DB all together and using OpenAPI w/ a Mock Server for local development https://openapi.tools/#mock personally like https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism

Mail your holiday cards programmatically
Lob was started by two developers who needed to solve a problem, and direct mail APIs were the answer; the goal was to make sending mail just as easy as sending an email. This is a fun personal use case, but Lob is meant to automate direct mail—postcards, letters, checks, self-mailers, and more—at scale. Just like email, each mailpiece can be highly personalized, and for advanced tiers, Mail Analytics is available for each mailpiece to track each postcard along its journey to delivery (and if you included a QR code, you could even track open rate). Check out Lob.com if you want to learn more.

Use Klaviyo to Automate Direct Mail
An example of a populated JSON Body could look something like the following. (You can find more information on each of these fields in Lob’s API documentation.)

StrapiConf 2022: Our favorite talks
To demonstrate our point, we built a website for a fictitious real estate company displaying information and photos of agents as well as properties for sale. We extended the website by adding a form for the real estate marketing team to use. They could select agents and properties, as well as customize the headline, fonts, and colors—then preview the postcard. All of this was powered by Strapi on the backend and Lob’s direct mail APIs.

Supporting Student Innovation at HackMerced VII
Clever uses of a Lob API included an integration with Modzy to analyze the sentiment of letters created with Lob, another built a health care website that included the ability to use the Lob API to mail well wishes to loved ones. The winner, Cali-Eco, built a website to educate visitors about environmental issues, and integrated the Lob API to send out custom postcards about relevant issues to users. On the frontend they used Figma for the rough draft of the website template, NicePage for the building blocks of the final draft site, and VSCode to edit the HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery. Backend technologies included Python, Flask—and the Lob API.

Sending a Check with Node.js
The form only captures the essential parameters the Lob Print & Mail API requires for sending checks. You can check out Lob’s documentation for optional parameters to customize the form further.

Presenting Headless Content as Print Mail
The presentation layers available to headless CMSs need not be digital. For example, with Lob’s Automated Direct Mail Platform, your headless CMS can use print mail as a presentation layer as easily as it sends emails. Lob APIs are widely available, continuously updated, and scalable. Print mail is one of two primary services Lob APIs offer, the other being address verification for US and international locations.

API Specification Design With Spectral and Prism
Lob’s API specification is a multifile spec organized semantically, by resource, instead of syntactically, by OpenAPI element. Organizing the spec semantically reduces cognitive friction, helping developers reason from interaction (endpoints) to data (and process) design.
