1.0.0 (2026-05-11)

This is the first release of Fakerer, a maintained fork of elixirs/faker.

Fork

• Forked from elixirs/faker at 0.19.0-alpha.1.
• Renamed the Hex package to fakerer. The Faker.* module API and the underlying OTP application name (:faker) are unchanged - migration is a one-line change in mix.exs, and config :faker, ... keeps working without modification.
• Promoted to 1.0.0 to signal API stability under new maintenance.
• Raised minimum Elixir to 1.16 The supported matrix is now Elixir 1.16 / 1.17 / 1.18 / 1.19 across OTP 26 / 27 / 28.
