🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
apps/www/content/glossary/api-mock-server.mdx (3)

8-8: Grammar tweak: start sentence with “An”, not “API”

Minor readability nit—adding the article makes the TLDR flow better.

-  tldr: API Mock Server is a simulated server that mimics the behavior of a real API, returning predefined responses for testing and development purposes.
+  tldr: An API Mock Server is a simulated server that mimics the behavior of a real API, returning predefined responses for testing and development purposes.

72-75: Hyphenate compound adjective “Early-stage”

Following style guides, compound adjectives before nouns should be hyphenated.

-| **Static Mock Server**| Returns fixed responses regardless of the request specifics. | Early stage testing, simple APIs |
+| **Static Mock Server**| Returns fixed responses regardless of the request specifics. | Early-stage testing, simple APIs |

80-84: Consider using internal Glossary links for tool names

Linking tools already defined in your Glossary (e.g., WireMock, MockServer) improves navigation and SEO.

Example:

- **WireMock**: A highly configurable tool …
+ <GlossaryLink term="WireMock" />: A highly configurable tool …

If those terms aren’t yet glossary entries, feel free to ignore.
