In my #python project #xiaolongdictionary I had need for generating example data. I did not want to add more dependencies for that, so I took some time to create a function, that takes a TypedDict type and a dictionary of "constraints" to constrain the produced values and output a "factory", that can be called and outputs example values.

It does not cover all the cases that one could imagine, but seems to cover all of mine.
