Reqres vs rest-hapi: What are the differences?

Developers describe Reqres as "Test your front-end against a real API". A hosted REST-API ready to respond to your AJAX requests. On the other hand, rest-hapi is detailed as "A RESTful API generator". A hapi plugin intended to abstract the work involved in setting up an API for the purpose of rapid app development. At the same time it provides a powerful combination of relational structure with NoSQL flexibility. You define your models and the rest is done for you.
