Important details

App name

As we develop AppGen, existing apps will randomly change. That is fine; it reflects the improvements on the apps. However, the name of the app should should not change very much. This is because each app will be associated with a particular domain name that we're going to tell people about.

In order to keep the name consistent, we are setting the random seed inside of FakeApp.getRandomName. Don't change this. In fact, you should probably. avoid changing anything about this method.

Things to randomize

• Identity
  • App name (from a startup name generator)
  • App text (from the TED talk generator)
  • App logo (from a logo generator)
  • Url file extension (php, asp, cgi)
  • Server header
• Chrome
  • Font size of title
  • Typeface
  • Background texture
  • Colors
  • Footer stickiness
  • Tile server
  • Button curviness
  • Map size
