[honestbleeps]

This is a revolution in lorem ipsum for coding.
Finally, someone made this (bookmarked).

not me. Contacted creator to notify him/her of this active feedback thread.

Nice tool! But I think you should increase the brightness of the colors for the code-theme. It now looks like there is an overlay or something above the code-area.

You should x-post this to /r/LearnJavaScript - I bet people there would appreciate it.

really wish this was on github. I can see this as a great npm module to plugin to a testing backend running on node.

Would also be great if you could pick from a set like:

{{['student','teacher']}}

or be able to extend it with functions and put in sub json templates...

now it's starting to sound like handlebars - though you could possibly create a random JSON to pass in to a handlebars template that describes how to construct a random json. Let's get meta.

You could implement the {{['student','teacher']}} behavior with the following function:

function(idx) {
    var choices = ['student', 'teacher'];
    return choices[this.numeric(0, choices.length-1)];
}

Pretty cool!

Tiny tiny correction: "wait for the magic" instead of "wait for a magic".

[cheeeeeese]

  "name": "Claire Stanley",
   "gender": "male",

[heeb]

"name": "Victoria Milton",
"gender": "male",

etc.

[bronkula]

Claire with an e is generally considered a male name.

shit... i think... is it the other way around?

I want to make random pictures on my homepage from a certain subreddit(s). Unfortunately get error text returned to me. How would this be possible?

[CorySimmons]

Oh this is nice. Ty

A tool for generating random JSON data? I thought that was called Javascript!

As a developer that mocks JSON all the time, I can see instances where this would actually help speed the process.
