📖 What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is dummy placeholder text used in the printing and typesetting industry since the 1500s. It originated from a scrambled section of Cicero's philosophical work "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (45 BC). Designers and developers use it to fill content areas in mockups and prototypes without the distraction of meaningful text.
Lorem Ipsum looks like natural language but is intentionally meaningless, which helps reviewers focus on visual design rather than reading the content. It has been the industry standard for dummy text for over 500 years and survived the transition to electronic typesetting and desktop publishing.
