JSON Server is a simple and lightweight npm package that allows you to quickly set up a REST API with CRUD operations using a JSON file as a database. It is commonly used for prototyping, mocking APIs, and front-end development, providing a fast and easy way to simulate a backend server without the need for a full-fledged database.

Compared to alternative solutions like Express.js or Firebase, JSON Server offers a more straightforward setup and configuration process, making it ideal for rapid development and testing. It provides a convenient way to define routes, relationships, and data manipulation operations through a simple JSON file.
