How to ignore lorem ipsum text from spell checker in WebStorm?

I'm using Lorem ipsum dummy text in the development stage of my React + Redux web app, but the spell checker is making a ton of distracting underlines under the dummy text and its pretty distracting and irritating to look at while I'm working.

Does anyone know where I can get a .dic file for this or a setting I can turn off for the Lorem Ipsum text only? I don't really want to go through each lorem ipsum word and tell the spell checker its correct...

Unfortunately, at the moment the IDE does not come with this feature. However, please consider the following options to navigate around the issue instead.

You could opt to install a Hunspell dictionary. Please be aware though that lorem ipsum is not valid Latin as it contains many words which don't exist in Latin, so you will need a special lorem ipsum dictionary.

As a last resort option you could disable this inspection or make the highlighting less severe. To do so go to Editor > Inspections > Proofreading > Type. Of course this is a very drastic solution since you would loose all your spelling error checks, so probably not something you would want.

If you are interested into when and if this feature will be available, you could follow this issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-243288
