WordMaker
A program that generates made-up words based on a provided list of actual words. It uses Markov chains to learn which letters are commonly used together, and then it generates new words based on these patterns. By learning from different word lists, the words that it generates can be very different! Get a more in-depth explanation here.

This project is built using the following:
- Bootstrap 4 alpha for the responsive design and pretty components
- jQuery to read the input fields and make the buttons do stuff
- Plain JavaScript to do the actual word-making, nothing special about it
In the source code, the file js/wordmaker.js has all of the code to actually make words. The other files are just for attaching event listeners to the DOM and DOM manipulation. You
can find all of the datasets in resources/.
