-When developing and testing the web interface, it's handy not to bother with re-flashing an ESP32 each time. The idea is to mimic the ESP using a mock/stub server that responds to the REST (HTTP POST & GET) and WebSocket calls.
-
-# prerequisites
-
-- Install the latest LTS of NodeJS
-- install corepack `npm install -g corepack@latest` and `orepack enable`
-- Install pnpm (`corepack use pnpm@latest-10` on linux or `winget install -e --id pnpm.pnpm` on windows). See <https://pnpm.io/installation>
-- Install bun (<https://bun.sh/docs/installation>)
-- type `pnpm install` from this `mock-api` folder to build
-
-# To run
-
-- `pnpm standalone` from the main `interface` folder and then navigate to <http://localhost:3000>
+Refer to the [EMS-ESP documentation](https://emsesp.org/Building#webui-development) on how to run the mock Web server.
