Start the Mock API Server

In this step we'll start the mock API server, so that we can create, update and delete data.

Start the Mock API Server

Open a second command line interface, and start the mock server using this command:

$ npm run server

Once the API server boots up, you should see output that looks like this:

{^_^}/ hi!

Loading db.json
Done

Resources
http://localhost:1337/users
http://localhost:1337/tweets

Home
http://localhost:1337

The output above tells us that the API server is available at http://localhost:1337 and that we can obtain the list of users from /users and the list of tweets from /tweets.

Next Steps

Next we're going to familiarize ourselves with the application.
