My JSON Server

Overview

My JSON Server is a fake online REST server for teams. It allows you to create a fake server instantly by using a JSON file hosted on GitHub. This is useful for hardcoding data and testing without setting up a real server.

Getting Started

How to

Create a repository on GitHub (<your-username>/<your-repo>).
Create a db.json file in the repository with your data.
Visit https://my-json-server.typicode.com/<your-username>/<your-repo> to access your server.

Example

Create a db.json file:

{
  "posts": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "title": "hello"
    }
  ],
  "profile": {
    "name": "typicode"
  }
}

Access your fake server instantly:

my-json-server.typicode.com/user/repo/posts/1
{
  "id": 1,
  "title": "hello"
}

You can check the following server as an example: https://my-json-server.typicode.com/typicode/demo
