About Placeholder Images
Placeholder images are temporary graphics used during development and design to represent where real images will eventually appear. They show the intended dimensions and help maintain layout structure.
This tool generates custom placeholder images with your specified dimensions, colors, and text. Unlike external placeholder services, the images are generated locally in your browser with no external dependencies.
Placeholder images are essential for frontend development, wireframing, and design mockups. They help teams visualize layouts before actual content assets are ready.
