What is Random String?

A random string generator for test data, fixtures, and throwaway identifiers, with fine control over the character pool.

How it works

The enabled character classes are concatenated into a pool, and each position is filled from crypto.getRandomValues.

Examples

Custom-alphabet strings

Generate random strings from your own alphabet for test data, referral codes, or placeholder content.

Common mistakes

Ambiguous characters

0/O and 1/l confuse users copying codes. The generator can exclude ambiguous characters from the alphabet.

Frequently asked questions

Can I set a fixed length?

Yes — any length, with a warning when the alphabet and length combination yields low entropy.

Can strings repeat?

Each character is drawn independently, so repeats are possible — fine for test data, not for unique identifiers.
