How to create a mock API using JSON Server | Mock API integration in Angular | Angular 17

In this tutorial, learn how to create a mock API using JSON Server for Angular development. JSON Server is a lightweight tool that allows you to set up a full fake REST API with zero coding in minutes, making it perfect for front-end developers to test and prototype applications without relying on a backend.

JSON Server allows you to quickly set up a mock backend by generating a RESTful API from a simple JSON file. This is useful for front-end developers who need to work on UI development before the actual backend is ready.
You can simulate a backend API even before it's built. This allows front-end developers to proceed independently, reducing dependency on the backend team or server setup delays.

We'll walk you through:

Installing JSON Server
Setting up a mock database
Configuring your Angular app to interact with the mock API
Performing CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete)
By the end of this video, you'll be able to simulate backend services and seamlessly integrate them into your Angular projects. Perfect for rapid development and testing!
