Ask HN: Favorite (Web) Developer Tool?
Curious to know more about what tools others use for web development.
In particular I've found that I've been spending a good deal of time manually mocking out data in my local environment for work. The process of reverse engineering which database models/tables need to be populated with specific records in order to render the frontend (React) components that I want has been tedious.
Does anybody know of a "full stack" web dev tool that could help with the visualization of this reverse engineering process? You can use Postman to mock an endpoint in a minute or two. Tell it what JSON you want it to return and it'll host it for you at a real URL. Abstracts away the database completely. Other than that, I use IntelliJ every day and love its power.
