FakerAPI
Generate fake people, addresses, products and more as JSON
FakerAPI spins up synthetic datasets, people, addresses, companies, images, credit cards and more, on demand. Pick a resource and a quantity and it returns keyless JSON with localizable, seedable fake data. Useful for filling test databases and UI mockups.
