# Introducing Mock Shop API for prototyping storefronts

We are introducing Mock.Shop, a free prototyping tool to build a proof-of-concept storefront without having to set up a shop or run any server-side code. Use Mock Shop API to query live commerce data such as sample products, variants, and carts to help you quickly prototype commerce storefronts.

Mock.Shop is publicly available - no server, or access tokens required.

Visit [Mock.Shop](https://mock.shop/) to learn more and build a proof-of-concept.
