Contributing

If you would like to contribute to the generator (even if you only want to add content), feel free to fork this repository and send me a pull request.

Config File

The generator uses a JSON config file to store buzzwords that are nouns and buzzwords that can be used as modifiers for those nouns. When the page is loaded, a random number of modifiers is applied to a random noun.

Nouns and modifiers are stored in config.json. This JSON file holds one list of nouns and four lists of modifiers (in different categories). Here is a brief description of the modifier categories:

  • before: Text added to the start of the string, with a space in between.
    • Example: Super Scrum
  • after: Text added to the end of the string, with a space in between.
    • Example: Scrum the Videogame
  • prefixes: Text added to the start of the string, without additional spaces.
    • Example: iScrum
  • suffixes: Text added to the end of the string, without additional spaces.
    • Example: Scrum.js

If you edit the config, please consider sorting the strings you add/edit within each section, as this makes it easier to find specific strings and duplicates.
