# Typeserve Live - Full Context for LLMs

## Overview

Typeserve Live is a web application that lets developers create temporary mock APIs from TypeScript types — instantly. No authentication, no accounts, no credit cards. Everything is disposable and auto-expires.

## What Typeserve Live Does

Typeserve Live provides an in-browser tool to:
1. Define TypeScript types (User, Post, etc.)
2. Configure REST routes (path, HTTP method, response type)
3. Generate a unique subdomain (e.g. my-api.typeserve.live)
4. Get a live mock API instantly with realistic data

The API uses TypeServe's smart data generation under the hood:
- Emails → user@example.com
- IDs → UUIDs
- Dates → ISO strings
- Names → Full names
- URLs → Valid URLs

## Features

### --instant
Get your API running in less than 5 seconds. No deployment, no configuration.

### --no-auth
No sign-up required. No accounts. No credit cards. Just create and use.

### --auto-expire
APIs automatically expire after 5 minutes to 2 hours. No cleanup needed.

### --typescript
TypeScript-first approach. Define your types, we generate the mock data.

### --restful
Full REST support with GET, POST, PUT, DELETE methods and custom routes.

## Usage Flow

1. Visit https://typeserve.live/create
2. Enter API name (lowercase, hyphens allowed)
3. Set expiration (5-120 minutes)
4. Paste or write TypeScript types
5. Add routes: path, method (GET/POST/PUT/DELETE), response type (e.g. User[], Post)
6. Click Create API
7. Receive subdomain like your-name.typeserve.live
8. Use endpoints: GET /users, POST /posts, etc.

## Relationship to TypeServe

Typeserve Live is the instant, disposable version of TypeServe. TypeServe is the npm package for local development with:
- typeserve.config.ts
- npx typeserve dev
- Hot reload
- Full control over your mock server
