I had a need for an API middleman, recording and replaying API messages between an application and provider APIs, without setting up a local proxy. So I decided to built something myself instead of another product. As with many side projects, I'm using it to learn new skills and brush up old ones.
With working from home and schools closed, I don't have much extra time, but the restructured day does mean I have pockets of time where I'd usually be out and about but can now be used at home.
