Eventsim

Eventsim is a program that generates event data to replicate page requests for a fake music web site (picture something like Spotify); the results look like real use data, but are totally fake. You can find the original repo here. My docker image is borrowed from viirya's clone of it, as the original project has gone without maintenance for a few years now.
