But this approach can lead to myriad of problems, including extensive refactoring and potential issues with data consistency. Fortunately, there are better ways to handle backend delivery delays, like creating a stub server, deploying a fake server within the app, mocking server, and even mocking a mocked server. As a seasoned mobile engineer, I tried all of that. In this session, I'll share my experience and provide practical examples of how to mitigate backend team delays on a new project. 00:00 Introduction 04:45 API contract 08:12 Stubbed BE 11:27 Fake API implementation 14:37 API Interceptors 17:35 Recap
