> A Lorem Ipsum Generator produces placeholder text — paragraphs, sentences, or words drawn from the classical Lorem Ipsum corpus — for use in design mockups, wireframes, and content layouts, generated entirely in your browser.

Pick how many paragraphs, sentences, or words you need, optionally start with the canonical 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet…' opener, and copy the result. The generator runs from a built-in word bank — there is no network call when you click Generate.

## Features

- Generate by paragraph, sentence, or word count
- Optional canonical 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet…' opener
- Adjustable sentence/paragraph length distribution
- Copy as plain text or HTML <p> tags
- Generated from an in-bundle word bank — no network call

## Use cases

- Filling a design mockup so reviewers focus on layout, not copy
- Stress-testing a CMS field with realistic-looking long-form text
- Seeding a database with non-blank text fields in test fixtures
- Generating headline placeholders that feel right at first glance

## How to use it

1. **Pick units and count** — Choose paragraphs, sentences, or words — then set how many.
2. **Toggle the classical opener** — Start with 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet…' or skip it for variety.
3. **Copy the output** — Copy as plain text or wrapped in HTML <p> tags.

## When to use it, and when to use something else

- **vs hipsum / bacon ipsum / themed ipsum sites** — use Lorem Ipsum Generator when you want neutral filler that does not pull reviewer attention to the words. Use hipsum / bacon ipsum / themed ipsum sites when you want a tonal in-joke for a casual mockup.
- **vs Pasting real article text** — use Lorem Ipsum Generator when you do not want stakeholders critiquing the copy during a layout review. Use Pasting real article text when the design depends on the actual sentence lengths and emphasis.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is scrambled Latin text derived from Cicero's De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum (45 BC). Designers use it as visually plausible filler that does not distract from layout decisions.

### Why not use real text as a placeholder?

Real text pulls a reviewer's attention to the words rather than the layout. Lorem Ipsum's visual texture is intentionally neutral so stakeholders evaluate spacing and typography rather than copy.

### Can I generate just a few words?

Yes — switch the unit selector to 'words' and request as few as one. This is useful for headlines and labels.
