@parcheesime I like the direction, but this can be implemented without creating a separate backend in a different tech stack.
Also, this (and other) PRs should wait to be merged until we get the build system changes in. Since I can't actively work on this regularly, this would hopefully help @bltomlin and other new developers ease into the codebase more smoothly.

This is a neat idea. We should figure out how big (how many records) we want this to have. It should be a big enough sample of data.

| This FastAPI app allows Lucky Parking developers to TEST features while the main data pipeline is under construction. | |||

I'm curious why a different tech stack and a different server?

Just to clarify — this proxy is meant to be strictly temporary and for local development/testing only, especially to unblock development while the main data pipeline is in progress.
It’s not intended to be deployed nor to become part of the final architecture. Once the data pipeline is ready, this should be removed or replaced.

Re: mock data — also note that the static JSON is intentionally small and controlled
right now to support lightweight map tests and local builds.
I'm happy to adjust anything needed to move things forward — just let me know what you prefer. Thanks, Glenn!

I’m happy to rewrite this to match the existing stack.
