What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is dummy text based on classical Latin. Designers use it to fill layouts before real content is ready. It looks like readable prose but contains no meaningful words, letting you focus on design rather than reading.
Sample: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit..."
Why use placeholder text?
