(<https://github.com/emsesp/EMS-ESP32/issues/41>)

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.

To set it up it do

```sh
% cd mock-api
% npm install
% cd interface
% npm install
```

and to run it

```sh
% cd interface
% npm run dev
```

## Notes

- new file `interface/src/setupProxy.js`
- new files `mock-api/server.js` with the hardcoded data. Requires its own npm packages for express

## ToDo

- add filter rule to prevent from exposing yourself to malicious attacks when running the dev server(<https://medium.com/webpack/webpack-dev-server-middleware-security-issues-1489d950874a>)
