Developer mode

You can start the bee in dev mode by running the command:

bee dev

It will start an instance with volatile persistence all back-ends mocked.

As a developer you interact with all the usual HTTP endpoints, for instance you can buy postage stamps and use them to upload files, which will be saved to memory.

Configuration options

It accepts the same configuration options as a normal bee but it will ignore the ones that are not relevant (accounting, networking, blockchain etc).
