how to install & run

  • install node+npm
  • install browserify (npm install -g browserify)
  • run something like browserify main.js -o serene.js --standalone serene
    • if you want to run it on the browser then ./compile.sh will automatically do this for you
  • go to index.html and the magic should happen automatically (may take some time though)

or if in the future we have a release you can download the packaged stuff there.

running

  • going to ./index.html directly will generate a seed for you
  • going to ./index.html?seed=<seed> will use that seed instead.

about

what we are

this is a program that autogenerates a very basic language comprising of pronunciation, syntax, and grammar.

what we aren't

  • a replacement for conlanging - think of us like an oven that bakes cakes, and you're the designer that puts on the icing
  • a program that generates original language features – more complex stuff like alignment and non-standard phonetics will still be the domain of humans
  • a commercial product - we will never charge money for any iteration of this product
  • an academic study on autogenerating language (however, if you have any tips or comments, we are open to hearing them!)
