I made an anagram generator. Well, I started making one, it's still pretty rough and I'm not sure if I'll ever polish it. Some notes:

* It should generate all anagrams for the given input exactly once. It should generate all permutations of multi-word anagrams.
* It is written in TypeScript so it runs locally on the user's machine. That's why I didn't add any restrictions on input length. However...
* It makes heavy use of sub-result caching in hopes of being fast. Unfortunately this also means that it will crash on long inputs eventually as memory runs out.
* It takes about 600 ms to generate all options for my first and last name (12 letters). If I add my middle name (5 letters), it crashes due to the above.
* It is still very difficult to find fun anagrams with it. Spying on some other generators online, I found that it would be smart to first generate anagrams with the least number of words as those are usually more interesting than ones with many small words.
* It might be good to use web workers to keep the UI responsive while generating the results. I might try that at some point as I've never used them before.

I joined this forum to publish small unpolished projects like this, hoping that the first question won't be "what's the use of this?". I hope someone finds this one even a tiny bit entertaining!

Hah, this is far from nonsense. I guess I'll consult this word generator when I'm out of imagination for new names.

Although I'd prefer if your server would do the scripting in the background instead of having JavaScript running in the browser. But it's certainly working fast in new browsers.

i love that ! i can definitely see myself using those anagram results for art projects. i wish i could give feedback on the coding part but i'm very much clueless about that.  :drat: this is basically wizardry to me. but i do like this anagram generator way more than any fancy UI anagram generators out there. the no-nonsense interface and hundreds of possible results are pretty inspiring. thank you for sharing it !
