⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

HTML editor

If you're mainly working on the HTML for a time--or the whole generator is HTML only--working in a smaller box that's underneath the preview (so you can either see a lot of the preview or a lot of the HTML) is a little annoying. A button to swap the editors so you can have the HTML on the left would be cool.

Alternatively (may be more work, I don't know)... Put the preview and REPL ("Tester"?) on the right side, as they're both "live." And put the code editors on the left side, as they're both "code." Then you could make either as big or small as you wanted. And if you don't use the REPL much (like me) you can make that real small still.

Code text size

Personally I'd love the ability to make the text larger, independently of the whole page. I can use ctrl+up/down to make the whole page's size larger or smaller, but I don't want the preview to be larger, or the top buttons to be larger, etc. Just the code itself.

Could be a nice accessibility feature.
