No placeholder or lorem ipsum content in production paths

Placeholder content that reaches a production URL is one of the most immediate trust destroyers a visitor can encounter. Lorem ipsum text signals the site is unfinished — not a beta, not "simple", but abandoned or sloppy. Template strings like "Your headline here" or "Add your description" reveal that whoever built the site did not bother to replace them, which visitors interpret as evidence that the rest of the site (including the product itself) is similarly unfinished. Placeholder images from via.placeholder.com or placehold.co are common in AI-generated code because scaffolding tools insert them as defaults, and they survive into production when the product is rushed out without a final content review.

Search the codebase for placeholder patterns and remove every instance:

# Search for common placeholder patterns
grep -r 'lorem ipsum\|Lorem ipsum\|lorem Ipsum' src/ app/ content/ --include='*.tsx' --include='*.mdx' --include='*.ts'
grep -r 'Your headline here\|Add your description\|Coming soon — content\|PLACEHOLDER\|TODO:.*copy\|Insert text' src/ app/ --include='*.tsx'
grep -r 'via\.placeholder\.com\|placehold\.co\|picsum\.photos\|/placeholder\.' src/ app/ components/ --include='*.tsx' --include='*.ts'

For each match, replace with real content. If final copy is not ready, write imperfect real copy — "We help developers ship faster" is vastly better than "Your tagline here". Use code comments to mark sections needing polish: {/* TODO: Replace with testimonial from beta user */} — comments are invisible to visitors, placeholder text is not.

If the product genuinely is not ready for public visitors, add a maintenance or coming-soon page at the root route and remove or gate the placeholder pages.
