Placeholder text that needs no explanation.
Placeholder text is useful when you need to see what a page design looks like, but the actual content isn't available. It's like having someone with identical measurements check the fit of a dress before trying it on yourself. This text is going to be replaced once the web page is completed.
There isn't a lot of value in these words. They are just telling you why they are here. If the web developer had some useful text to place here, this is how the typeface would appear. If you are reading these words, it probably means the web page you are viewing is still under construction.
If the last thing you want to do is explain the history of why Latin text is being used as a placeholder in your design, this is the tool for you! Feel free to copy and paste this text and use it in your next project to eliminate any questions or concerns a client might have.
If you aren't into copying and pasting, you can also use the API to retrieve text. Use a GET request to:
honest-ipsum.johnclendvoy.ca/api?element_count=2&length=100
elementp (paragraphs), or li (list items in an unordered list). Default: pelement_countlengthcareerI want to thank the following users at /r/web_design for contributing content and/or suggestions to improve this generator!
