R.I.P Faker.js 😥, so I just decided I would build my own tool and share it with whoever might find it useful.
This package is not designed to replace Faker.js - which was heavy like hell by the way. The purpose is to keep it as light and basic as possible - so no localization or country specific stuff -, which should cover lots of needs.
