Mock APIs in 60 Seconds 🚀

(No terminal, no backend, just four clicks)

  1. Register / Log in at https://mock-api.net – the dashboard opens instantly.
  2. In the sidebar click “➕ Add API”.
  3. Fill the form:
Field Example
Request name Todos list
Relative path /todos
Folder demo (or type a new folder to group your APIs)
Response body
[
  { "id": 1, "title": "Write blog" },
  { "id": 2, "title": "Drink coffee" }
]
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode


|

  1. Click Save – you land on the API profile page.
  2. Hit the copy icon to grab the live URL:
https://mock-api.net/api/demo/todos
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  1. Drop that URL into Postman, fetch from your React/Vue app, or share it with a teammate. Done in under a minute.

Why this crushes “waiting-for-backend” blues

  • Parallel velocity – front-end keeps shipping while the server is still a Trello card.
  • QA automation – deterministic responses beat flaky staging DBs.
  • Demo power – stakeholders see real flows on demo day, not static mocks.
