## About

Produces amusing names for BioGrid, the next RapDev project for the Society of Software Engineers.

Please note that this software is a personal project of mine, and not of the

Society of Software Engineers.

## Hacking

If you would like to contribute to the name generator (even if you only want to

add content), feel free to fork this repository and send me a pull request.

### Editing the list of modifiers

The name generator uses Modifier objects to hold text that can modify BioGrid's

title. When the page is loaded, a random number of modifiers is applied to the

string "BioGrid".

Modifier text is stored in `modifiers.json`. This JSON file holds four lists of

modifiers, stored in a hash table. Here are brief descriptions of these four

lists:

- __before__: Text added to the start of the name, with a space in between.

	- Example: Super BioGrid

- __after__: Text added to the end of the name, with a space in between.

	- Example: BioGrid the Videogame

- __prefixes__: Text added to the start of the name, without additional spaces.

	- Example: iBioGrid

- __suffixes__: Text added to the end of the name, without additional spaces.

	- Example: BioGrid.js
