Demo: large fake REST API

This is the right home for the big public demo API: a dedicated tutorial-style landing page in the docs, with the actual interactive explorer hosted separately. That keeps the DaloyJS docs focused while still giving users a realistic large-spec environment to test against.

Live demo

Explore the public demo at fakerestapi.vercel.app.

Why this lives here

  • It is a product demo, not part of the framework API surface.
  • A catalog with roughly 600 endpoints is too large for the core docs sidebar structure.
  • Users looking at OpenAPI, client generation, and docs rendering need a realistic large example.

The demo exists so you can validate OpenAPI tooling, typed client codegen, and docs UX against a realistic large contract instead of a toy example.

What to use it for

  • Pressure-test docs UIs and endpoint navigation with a non-trivial API size.
  • Verify OpenAPI generation and downstream codegen workflows on a large contract.
  • Exercise typed SDK generation and sample integrations before exposing your own API.
  • Show prospective users that DaloyJS scales beyond toy examples.

Recommended information architecture

Keep this page in the docs as the entry point, and host the actual explorer as a separate live surface such as demo.daloyjs.dev or api-demo.daloyjs.dev. The docs page should explain the purpose of the demo, link to the live explorer, and link back into the relevant DaloyJS guides.

Where to continue

Pair this demo with OpenAPI generation, typed clients, and the Bookstore tutorial for a smaller end-to-end build.
