[C#] RandomCustomStrings

The RandomCustomStrings class in the Promezio.RandomCustomStrings namespace provides a simple yet flexible way to generate random strings in C#. This can be highly useful in scenarios like generating random IDs, passwords, test data, and more. The class allows for extensive customization through the StringConfig class, enabling users to specify the length and character types of the generated strings.
