Content generator allows you quickly create dummy data such as avatars, names, geo location data etc.
Demo
Generating pictures
Generating names
Generating dummy text
Generating strings
You can create a custom string by combining any of these options:
- plain text (example: banana)
- random number from range (example: [0-20] )
- random item from an array (example: [banana~apple~grapes] )
An example of a combined string: $[0-999],[10-99] [new~used~old]
Which would result in “$321,34 old” or “$12,75 new”

In Sketch app use Plugins\Content Generator\Images\Custom
plugin to specify path to your own folder with images
