Question 1

What is fake data and why do developers need it?

Accepted Answer

Fake data is realistic but synthetic data used for testing, demos, database seeding and prototypes without exposing real personal information. Developers use it to populate test databases, mock API responses, stress-test queries and create realistic UI demos — all without GDPR/CCPA risk.

Question 2

Is the generated data sent to a server?

Accepted Answer

No. Everything runs entirely in your browser. The schema, the generated records and the export — all are processed locally. Your test data never leaves your machine.

Question 3

What field types are supported?

Accepted Answer

18 types including name, email, phone, address, city, country, uuid, date, datetime, age, price, company, job, url, username, ip, boolean and integer — plus a custom-format pattern field for any regex-like template.

Question 4

How many records can I generate?

Accepted Answer

Anywhere from 1 to 10,000 rows per click. The tool uses an efficient synchronous generator that handles 1,000 rows in under 100ms and 10,000 rows in 3-5 seconds in modern browsers.
