There is no installation so to say, you just have to clone this repo and you are good to go.

git clone https://github.com/ItsBhatt/json-server.git

json-server takes advantage of serverless-http package which acts as a wrapper and exported as a handler supported by AWS Lambda. It can be deployed on serverless functions as well as on normal servers.

• helpers -> Parsing the req + generating response
• db.json -> Mock data which will be used for response generation
• index.js -> Root File
• routes.js -> express server routes

After clonning the repo you can simply add you mock json data inside db.json on the root directory.

It can be deployed on any platform(server/serverless) and it works seamlessly.
