Update `ApiConstants` to use proxy: +```dart +static String baseUrl = kIsWeb ? 'http://localhost:3000/nscapi' : 'https://ms.hmg.com/nscapi'; +``` + +--- + +### **Solution 4: Browser Extension (Development Only)** + +For testing, use a CORS browser extension: +- Chrome: "CORS Unblock" or "Allow CORS" +- Firefox: "CORS Everywhere" + +⚠️ **Warning**: Only for development!
