JSON Placeholder API
JSON Placeholder API
I use the JSONPlaceholder API as a super simple way to practice working with APIs without building a backend from scratch. In the video, I hit the /posts route so you can see exactly what a clean JSON response looks like and how to inspect it in Postman.
Pros
- +Free mock data for practicing API requests (posts, comments, and more)
- +Great for learning request/response basics without setup
- +Returns clear JSON that’s easy to inspect in tools like Postman
Cons
- -It’s mock data, so the content is placeholder text
- -Not representative of all real-world auth and edge cases
