  Mirage JS is an open source API mocking library for JavaScript that lets you build,
  test, and share complete frontend features without depending on a backend. It runs
  alongside your frontend code as in-browser middleware, providing a built-in database,
  factories for seeding data, route handlers, and serializers. It is framework-agnostic
  and works with React, Vue, Angular, Ember, and any modern test runner. Mirage JS
  is itself a library (not a hosted REST API), so this entry indexes its documentation
  and project resources.

      Mirage JS is a JavaScript library for mocking APIs. It enables frontend developers
      to build complete features, write realistic tests, and share working prototypes
      without a real backend. Mirage runs in the browser as middleware, includes a
      built-in database and factories, and supports any major JavaScript framework.
