Frequently Asked Questions

What is the origin of Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum text has roots in classical Latin literature from 45 BC, specifically from Cicero's treatise on the theory of ethics "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum". The modern version was scrambled in the 1500s.

Can I use this for production code?

Yes, placeholder text is highly recommended in development to prevent users from focusing on copy readability rather than structural layout and design proportions.

How does HTML wrapping work?

Selecting "Wrap in HTML tags" will wrap output paragraphs in <p>...</p> tags and list items in <li>...</li> tags, which allows direct copy-pasting into raw code blocks.

Are there server dependencies?

No. The text generator dictionary and array shuffler execute completely local in JavaScript. No requests are sent to servers, and it works completely offline.
