One of the benefits of Strapi is that it is completely open-source and self-hosted.

Project mention: Show HN: UpfrontJS – Data handling framework complementary to active records | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-12-21
I came to write this package as I was annoyed by code duplication when writing bespoke requests. Such as: unwrapping data, specifying the endpoint, transforming keys' casing etc. I looked around and saw there was no package that solved my issues and this was a gap in the ecosystem. Evidently I did not look good enough as since then I have found some alternatives: https://github.com/milroyfraser/sarala https://github.com/robsontenorio/vue-api-query https://github.com/DavidDuwaer/Coloquent

To test the API, I recommend a proper API testing framework that can run a full test suite without you having to write a single test case. In this area, I recommend Dredd and schemathesis. These frameworks will get you covered when it comes to ensuring that the API server complies with the API specification. You may find Dredd a bit confusing at the beginning, in which case I recommend a tutorial I wrote a while ago about testing with Dredd. In addition, you can consider using just-apis, which allows you to define your own test cases for the API in YAML files (so no programming required).

Project mention: My first JavaScript project became a lesson in deploying a REST API json-server (and how you can do it, too.) | dev.to | 2021-06-08
I reached out to my instructor again for advice on how I might be able to make my web app, well, an actual web app. She returned with this amazing template which allows developers to deploy the fake REST API JSON-server (which I was already using locally) to Heroku.

Project mention: How we use Apollo to manage GraphQL data in our React Typescript application | reddit.com/r/reactjs | 2021-04-27
Did you evaluate mock-service-worker? It's a good solution to mocking API requests. When it executes in the browser it uses a service worker to intercept requests, and when it executes in node (e.g. unit tests) it patches the http.Request methods to effectively do the same. Here's an example for mocking Apollo: https://github.com/mswjs/examples/tree/master/examples/graphql-react-apollo

On all internet connected robots (600, 800, 900, e5, i7/i7+, and S9 / S9+) you can use the Dorita980 or Rest980 SDKs to pull the robot's state, which includes all of the battery information (voltage, cycles, status, authenticity, etc.)

It's specific to jsonapi REST APIs, but jsonapi-vuex does a mix of API caching and normalisation.
