Mocks

Status: accepted
Scope
- [ ] backend
- [x] playground
- [x] navigation
- [x] footer
- [ ] top-level-search
- [x] contact-module
Context
When developing locally, we could make use of mock data to be independent of the backend. This would allow us to develop the frontend without the need of a running backend and prevents us from being affected by downstream issues.
Decision
We forgo the use of mock data to be closer to the developer experience, that users of our packages have. This way, we hope to detect errors earlier.
Consequences
If the production data is not available, we would not be able to develop the packages. But in that case, fixing production data should be the priority anyway.
