v8 - Make Faker Handier #

Our main goal in v8 is to make Faker more lightweight and more flexible.

v8.0 - Module Re-Shuffling #

Finish the module shuffling.

• Remove locale switching support
• Move String and Number methods into own modules
• Rename Name module to Person
• Rename Address module to Location
• Check modules and methods regarding their name and location
• Try to eliminate circular dependencies in modules
• Standardize function parameters and defaults
• Rewrite image module / providers

v8.0 Tasks

v8.1 - Split Faker Class #

Split the Faker class into smaller units so you don't have ship an entire locale if you only generate some strings and numbers.

v8.1 Tasks

v8.x - Tree-Shakeable Module-Functions #

Refactor modules to be tree shakeable. Potentially allowing individual Faker methods to be called by themselves.
