I find this a challenge when developing on the train (as I spend over 2 hours a day on one). 4G LTE is great and all, but there are dead zones and dropouts that make some API calls annoyingly long to respond. Lately I’ve been messing around with stubbing out the remote calls locally using nginx, so I thought I would share how I do it.
