What is Perchance?

Perchance is a platform for creating and sharing random generators. It allows users to create lists which reference other lists to generate random outputs. Users can adjust the odds of items, import other generators, and alter the capitalization, pluralization, and tense of word lists. Perchance is designed to allow you to create random generators that have a lot of complexity, without requiring any existing coding knowledge, and with a fairly simple interface. Perchance is based on HTML/CSS, and JavaScript, and my secret mission with Perchance is to get people interested in coding with a smooth, fun learning-curve.

How to use

To create a random generator on Perchance, you create lists that reference other lists. For example, you can define a 'pack' list and an 'item' list, and then create an output that combines random items from both lists. You can also adjust the odds of items being chosen and import generators from other users.
