+## Simple data generation
+
+Faker provides a `simpleFaker` that can be used to generate data that are not based on any locales like numbers and strings.  
+Also **helpers** like `arrayElement` or `multiple` are available.
+
+This is useful if you just want to generate e.g. `uuid`s for your test environment, but don't want/need to initiate/load a full Faker instance, which would include at least 500KB of locale data.
+
+```ts
+import { simpleFaker } from '@faker-js/faker';
+
+const uuid = simpleFaker.string.uuid();
+```
+
+See more about `SimpleFaker` in the [API docs](/api/simpleFaker).

 ## Create complex objects
 
 Faker mostly generates values for primitives.
