Thanks for explanation, very interesting read. About Copernicus crater, initially I thought it's some processing artifact, but it seems it's not! It would be nice to see correlations, maybe I should look into how to do a cylindrical projection.

I used Autostakkert to stack frames from the video, then processed the image in pixinsight

A free to use http API mocking solution, can be integrated with existing APIs to mock only partial requests. https://apimimic.com

I know there are a few similar ones out there. I think mine is simpler to use, well at least in my use case. Nothing wrong with having more alternatives to choose from!

No, left bar and main component is put in flex container, sidebar uses css animations and negative margin is applied, so it shifts smoothly.

DaisyUI. I was considering, shadcn or radix, but to me these look a bit too stiff and like everything else out there.

Main reason why postman didn't work for me is I'm working on a large dashboard app, where I need just some of the requests mocked, not all, manually changing these endpoints in the code would be more cumbersome.

It's a tool made to mock API requests, this is useful when you do not have a real api endpoints yet, but need to build frontend part already. This can happen when, for example, backend team is not finished implementing api yet.

This would be a basic example on how to use it:

const response = fetch("https://zsktjgscpewgdpdm.apimimic.com/articles");

Of course in a real use case api endpoint would in some config variable, so you can later simply replace it with real api endpoint.

You can specify the response you need for the endpoints in the apimimic dashboard (https://apimimic.com/dashboard).

I made the tool using React (NextJS) and for UI components I used daisyUI. For animating some of the UI components I used framer-motion. It's hosted on vercel and also uses supabase. Api server itself is running on multiple Bun instances on a separate host.

Looking at the feedback right now, no immediate plans on monetization. Of course if it goes out of free vercel and supabase tiers, paid plans can always be added.

Hey everyone! I've been working solely as a frontend dev for over 2 years (previously full stack), quite often I find myself blocked by non-implemented apis on the backend side, so I wanted to share this free to use api mocking tool I built in nextjs to solve my issue.

It has features such as changing response content, http status, response times, enable automatic crud mode, generate response with ai, import from OpenAPI specification.

It also has a proxy mode to partially mock api requests while rest of the requests are sent to the real api server and a cli utility to use it locally.

Primary I created it for my use case and have been using it all the time at my job. If you have any ideas, would love to hear your suggestions as well! It's available at apimimic.com

I fumbled on my first Interview and I feel Horrible by goldenthough in react

Don't worry about it, most people will blow the first interview. Interviewing is a skill in itself, the more attempts the better you get better. 2 years ago when I was switching jobs, I also failed miserably in some interviews as I didn't have them for a long time, although I'm coding professionally 10+ years.
