Fake Filler is a browser extension for developers and testers to make filling forms with dummy data quick and easy. This is a must-have for developers who work with long forms as it makes filling them with dummy data quick and simple.

    I built a browser extension called FakerFill to help developers and QA testers test web forms faster. It automatically detects input fields and fills them with realistic fake data (names, emails, addresses, etc.). The extension focuses on simplicity — there’s no data collection, and everything runs locally in the browser. You can also create and reuse custom templates, choosing which fields to fill and how they’re populated. Right now, it’s available for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. I’d love to get feedback from other developers — both on usability and ideas for future improvements.

    I built a free Chrome extension called FillApp. It lets you fill web forms just by writing plain text like: “Ship it from @NorthDelivery to @WestflowLimited” It parses the form automatically and fills it with the right data, including tricky fields like dates, multiselects, etc. You can also save and reuse snippets across different forms. It’s completely free and works with most modern web forms. Would love to hear what you think.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
