Perhaps this is a silly question but why would you want to mock a UUID?!


There are no silly questions, but there are silly UUIDs (and silly people), worthy of being mocked.

I'm creating fake data to build the UI without the backend. I wrote a json file with the data and I could fill all the fields except for the ids.

There are other players offering UUIDv4 generation online such as uuidgenerator.net and uuidtools.com, my tool does the same.
