How can I set up a mocking API in my Create React App?

You can use tools like json-server or Mock Service Worker (MSW) to create a mocking API. Would you like a step-by-step guide?

Yes, please provide a step-by-step guide using json-server.

First, install json-server using npm: npm install json-server. Then, create a db.json file with your mock data.

What should I include in the db.json file?

You can structure it like this: { "posts": [{ "id": 1, "title": "Hello World" }] }. This will create a posts endpoint.

How do I run the json-server after setting it up?

Run the command json-server --watch db.json --port 3001 to start the server. Your API will be available at http://localhost:3001/posts.
