Hey Tomek, thanks for the tip!
But one thing I do not understand: shouldn't the mock backend preferably be local? How is your solution different than connecting to a real backend for tests (assuming there is one), in terms of speed?
Hey Daniel!
Well, I think that question answers itself, there must be a real backend ready.
In many projects (this is very unfortunate but still happens quite often) backend and frontend teams work simultaneously and from my experience in a majority of cases, projects come to a point where backend is lacking some implementation and that causes delays on the frontend.
oh, I think I misunderstood. I was assuming this was a mock backend for testing purposes, as in using a mock api endpoint for testing components and functions with Jest, for example.
Excellent contribution, thanks is very useful 😄
